Abstract

This study delves into the intricacies of comprehending, calculating, and applying deadlines within criminal procedure, which serves as a distinct form of guarantee established to uphold the overarching objectives of criminal proceedings in Russia while safeguarding the interests and rights of all involved stakeholders. The author explores the gaps and contradictions present in current normative regulation on this matter, alongside the doctrinal viewpoints and trends within judicial and investigative practices. Concrete examples are employed to illustrate the profound collisions arising from these gaps in practice, prompting an evaluation and the proposition of potential solutions to mitigate, if not eliminate these collisions.
