TO THE QUESTION OF DETERMINING THE SIZE OF COMPENSATION OF MORAL INJURY IN CRIMINAL PROCEEDINGS

Abstract

The construction of the rule of law in the Russian Federation requires increased attention to the rights and freedoms of man and citizen. Meanwhile, the institution of compensation for moral harm and determining its size has not yet been fully developed in Russian legislation. The main branches of legislation pay sufficient attention to property damage, but their content does not fully satisfy the need for judicial determination of moral damage and the amount of its compensation. This article analyzes the theoretical, normative and empirical foundations governing this institution, draws conclusions and proposes a calculation of the amount of compensation for moral harm.
