Abstract:
Abstract: The presented article highlights the importance of the legal explanatory activity of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation for the effective application of criminal law, and draws attention to the fact that in some cases it resorts to the use of an analogy bordering on an extended interpretation of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, in fact generating a new content of the criminal law regulation or filling in the gap. On the example of judicial interpretation of art. 37, 162 and 226 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation demonstrate the validity of the use of analogy by the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, on the basis of which proposals are formulated to supplement individual rulings, including a provision on the admissibility of analogy in interpreting the norms of the General Part of the Criminal Code.
