Annotation: The purpose of this article is to analyse the quality of the court, prosecutor and lawyers work through the prism of the problems of the indictment of the Russian criminal process. The study is conducted on the basis of judicial statistics of justices of the peace and courts of general jurisdiction in the first, appeal and cassation instances. The author comes to the following conclusion about modern criminal justice: 1) there is a low percentage of acquittals; 2) that maintains the stability of judicial acts of lower courts; 3) the court, prosecutor and lawyers work can control the legality of court decisions through procedural mechanisms enshrined in legislative acts. The author concludes that improving the quality of the court, prosecutor’s and lawyers’ work, as well as the level of protection of human and civil rights and freedoms lies in the plane of improving the status-role parameters of the interactions of the main participants in criminal proceedings. These interactions are determined by the circle of their joint activities legal and procedural status. Thus, we need amend existing legislation.
