RELEASE FROM PUNISHMENT: PROBLEMS AND WAYS OF IMPROVEMENT
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
Release from serving a sentence refers to a comprehensive legal institution which includes the rules of criminal law, criminal procedure, penal and state law applicable at the stage of imposition of the court sentence on persons actually serving a sentence. This institu- tion is aimed at improving the status of the convict and refers to the incentive means of crimi- nal law and criminal enforcement stimulating law-abiding behavior of convicts. The peculiarity of the criminal law promotion is the state’s approval of positive after-care behavior. All grounds for release from serving a sentence should be classified into groups: after serving a sentence imposed by a court sentence; early release from serving a sentence; release as a result of re- habilitation; change in legislation eliminating crime or punishable acts.Taking into account modern requirements of corruption prevention it is offered to create the Commission on questions of early release of condemned in the subjects of the Russian Federation which could consider preliminary petitions on early release of condemned and give recommendations concerning the on reasonability of this type of release to the court for de- cision-making assistance. The Commission shall include representatives of civil society insti- tutions - at least two thirds of the total quantity, as well as representatives of state organiza- tions - at least one third of the total quantity. These commissions of the subjects of the Russian Federation after receiving the prisoner from the administration of the institution or authority enforcing the sentence shall consider the documents for early release within fifteen days and send a proposal of the Commission on the appropriateness / inappropriateness of the use of this type of parole to the court.It is also proposed to introduce the conditional nature of the amnesty which will adjust the behavior of the released and contribute to the correction and prevention of new crimes during the non-served part of the punishment. Conditional release on amnesty will mean that if dur- ing the probation period noted in the resolution on amnesty a probationer violates the rules the court can appoint cumulative sentences.
