Abstract

This article deals with the implementation of the principle of legality in the conduct of the case, in relation to the mediation procedure, which at the moment has not found its reclaim in either the criminal or criminal procedure law, however, it can be argued that all the necessary prerequisites and resources for the implementation of the institution are available. The article substantiates the conclusion that a harmonious combination of the principles of legality and expediency will contribute to the improvement of criminal proceedings in general, and in particular alternative forms of resolution of criminal-right conflict, including mediation, as well as to conform to the ideas of optimization, rationalization and humanization of the criminal process.
