Criminal legal sanctions for crimes committed by specific categories of persons

Abstract

In the general theory of state and law, a sanction is usually understood as a part of a rule of law that indicates adverse consequences for the offender in the form of coercive influence on him. This idea of a sanction is contradicted by numerous scientific definitions of a criminal legal sanction, which are based on the concept of "sanction of an article of the Special Provisions of the Penal Code", which is repeatedly used in the Penal Code of the Russian Federation. Consideration of the sanction as a part of a criminal legal norm on liability for a certain type of crime allows us to consider it in relation to the composition of the crime, reflected in the disposition of the same criminal legal norm. The Penal Code of the Russian Federation contains legal norms where sanctions have been adjusted to consider the special characteristics of the subject of the crime. These sanctions can be considered as a special group of criminal legal sanctions. Both the disposition (In terms of the characteristics of the subject of the crime) and the sanction of the criminal legal norms are specified in the articles of the General Provisions of the Penal Code of the Russian Federation.
