Abstract
<jats:p>The monograph examines the nature of termination of pre-trial cooperation, and provides an analysis of the functioning of the institution of a pre-trial cooperation agreement in modern Russian criminal proceedings. The criteria for distinguishing the grounds for making a decision on its termination are formulated. The conflict between the grounds for termination of the pre-trial cooperation agreement procedure and the procedure for its application in judicial practice, as well as gaps in the legal regulation of the agreement at various stages of legal proceedings, were revealed. The problems of legislative regulation and enforcement of the provisions of Chapter 40.1 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation are investigated and reasoned solutions are proposed. The interrelation of the factors of termination of the agreement and the process of its conclusion and application of the agreement is considered. A comprehensive analysis of the specifics and theoretical provisions of the termination process of the pre-trial agreement was carried out, which resulted in recommendations for changing and introducing new provisions of the legislation. It is of interest to teachers, investigators, prosecutors, judges, students, undergraduates and postgraduates of law faculties.</jats:p>
