Another comment on Art. 308 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation

1. In this part of the conviction, decisions are formulated: to find the defendant guilty of committing a crime, indicating the norm of the criminal law providing for this crime and punishment for it; about the type and amount of punishment that the court considered necessary to impose on the perpetrator, as well as about the type and regime of the correctional institution in which the convicted person will serve his sentence, etc.

When assigning punishment to a defendant for a set of crimes, it is necessary to determine the punishment for each crime separately, and then calculate the final punishment depending on the category of crimes (Article 69 of the Criminal Code). The rules for imposing punishment based on the totality of sentences are established by Art. 70 CC.

2. The decision to acquit the defendant of some of the crimes with which he was charged is also indicated in the operative part of the conviction. In addition, this part of the conviction must contain decisions on imposing an additional type of punishment, on counting the time of the defendant’s preliminary detention in custody, on the measure of restraint before the sentence enters into legal force.

Commentary on Article 313 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation

1. It seems that before issuing a ruling or decree on the transfer of minor children and other dependents, as well as elderly parents of a person sentenced to the care of close relatives, relatives or other persons, or their placement in children's or social institutions, the court should summon these persons or their representatives to a court hearing in order to clarify the issue of their consent and the actual possibility of taking on such care. According to Part 3 of Art. 31 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, guardianship and trusteeship of minors are established, in particular, in cases where such citizens for other reasons were left without parental care. Guardianship is established over minors, as well as over citizens declared incompetent by a court due to a mental disorder. Guardianship is established over minors aged fourteen to eighteen years. At the same time, according to Art. 35 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, a guardian or trustee, with his consent, is appointed by the guardianship and trusteeship body, and not by the criminal court. In this case, his moral and other personal qualities, ability to fulfill the duties of a guardian or trustee, the relationship existing between him and the person in need of guardianship or trusteeship, and, if possible, the desire of the ward must be taken into account. It is unlikely that a criminal court can take into account all these circumstances while passing a sentence. It appears that the term “care” used in Com. article, is not equivalent to the concepts of “guardianship” and “trusteeship”, and the court’s ruling must be addressed primarily to the guardianship and trusteeship authorities so that they, in the manner established by civil and family legislation, take measures to protect the rights and interests of minor children, dependents and elderly parents of the convicted person.

2. A court ruling or ruling on the protection of the property or home of a convicted person that remains unattended must also be addressed to the guardianship and trusteeship authorities, which, in order to protect the property of a convicted person, have the right to use the institution of trust management of property. According to Art. 38 of the Civil Code “if there is a need for permanent management of the ward’s real estate and valuable movable property, the guardianship and trusteeship body concludes with the manager appointed by this body an agreement on trust management of such property. In this case, the guardian or trustee retains his powers in relation to the property of the ward that has not been transferred to trust management.”
