Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of court practice connected with the remission of sentences based on the verdict of the jury. The author also describes a number of problematic situations emerging at the stage of stating questions to the jury, including the problem of the meaning and constructive content of the questions to the jury, the procedural rules for the jury instructions by the president judge, the order of conducting consultations and voting in the jury room and rendering a verdict. The author highlights the problem of insufficient legal regulation in the criminal procedure legislation. The argumentation of the conclusions is based on studying the statistical data of the Court Department under the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, the reviews of court practice, acts of judicial power as well as research publications on the topic. The author concludes that a more detailed interpretation of the clauses of Art. 339 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation is necessary.
