Abstract

The article analyzes the problems of law enforcement practice in cases related to challenging acts of prosecutorial response. The author provides information on the indicators of the application of acts of prosecutorial response, indicating the importance of these legal means of the prosecutor’s office, as well as the facts of their recognition by the courts as illegal. Based on the analysis of the results of the consideration of cases of this category by arbitration courts, the main reasons for recognizing acts of prosecutorial response as illegal are given. The article considers the question of whether or not it is necessary in each case to make an act of prosecutorial response to carry out an inspection, and to make an appropriate decision about it. The problem of determining the presence or absence of the fact of interference by the prosecutor’s office in the administrative and economic activities of a legal entity as a basis for recognizing the relevant act of prosecutorial response as illegal is raised. The author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to amend the federal legislation regulating the conduct of prosecutorial inspections, and also points out the relevance of clarifying a number of issues in the relevant resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
