Criminal Procedure Terms: Innovations of Constitutional Interpretation and Conflicts of Judicial and Investigative Practice

Abstract

The subject of the analysis in this work is the rules for the exact calculation and extension of procedural terms, especially those established for the application of procedural coercion measures that significantly limit the rights, freedoms and legitimate interests of participants in criminal proceedings in Russia. Exploring the gaps and contradictions of the normative regulation, the author, using specific examples of judicial and investigative practice, shows what serious and negative, in fact, collisions these gaps lead to in practice; evaluates and proposes options for eliminating or minimizing these collisions.
