Abstract
The paper considers the second attempt made by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation in terms of introducing the concept of criminal misconduct into the Russian criminal and criminal procedure legislation, examines the goals of its introduction. The authors conclude that the introduction of a criminal offense in the draft law No. 1112019-7 will entail the need to review some approaches in Russian law: the legal nature of the crime, the ratio of a criminal offense with a minor act and an administrative offense, the elements of a crime with administrative prejudice, the principle of justice. It seems possible to achieve procedural effectiveness, reduce the burden on judges and protect the rights of victims without introducing a criminal offense within the existing criminal and criminal procedural mechanisms related to exemption from criminal liability and expansion of non-rehabilitating grounds for termination of a criminal case or criminal prosecution. It seems possible to use the already established categorization of crimes in relation to crimes of small and medium gravity. In terms of expanding the grounds for terminating a criminal case or criminal prosecution, it is appropriate to use the experience of the German legislator, which provides for the possibility of terminating criminal prosecution on grounds of expediency when the accused fulfills various duties and regulations assigned to him. In German criminal procedure law, the termination of criminal prosecution on grounds of expediency when assigning duties or prescriptions to the accused is the right of the relevant officials and bodies, and not their obligation, since in fact it is an alternative to criminal prosecution. This will allow it to be terminated at a certain stage in the case when there are all legal grounds for criminal prosecution.

Summary
Суда РФ по делам об уголовных проступках для освобождения от уголовной ответственности по данному основанию не требовалось возмещение причиненного преступлением вреда. Во избежание повтора высказанных позиций хотелось бы отметить, что в настоящее время и без понятия уголовного проступка в российском праве предусмотрены возможности прекращения уголовного преследования (уголовного дела) по нереабилитирующим основаниям как на досудебной, так и на судебной стадии, освобождения от уголовной ответственности лиц, впервые совершивших преступления небольшой или средней тяжести, при выполнении ими условий, предусмотренных ст.
