| Research Abstract |
The jury system in Russia, introduced in several federal subjects in 1993 and spread nationwide up to 2010, is in a difficult situation right now. First, the number of criminal cases, to which the jury system is applied, is substantially decreasing because of the institutional changes (exemption of such political crimes as terrorist acts or spying, and reduction of crimes to be examined by jury as a result of transfer of jurisdiction of a series of crimes from oblast courts to district courts, caused by introduction of appellate system) as well as practice of prosecuting authorities or some attorneys at law to avoid jury trial. Second, court practice to limit the scope of matters to be judges by jury is prevailing in trial on the basis of the Federal Supreme Courts guideline. Such a head wind can be interpreted, at least partially, as a result of its achievement that it has shown its potential to overcome such malady of Russian criminal justice as inclination toward the prosecution.
