metadata.value: The article discusses the waiver of procedural rights as a particular legal phenomenon. The
  rationale for studying the waiver of rights in the Russian criminal procedure doctrine arises from the expansion of the spheres of disposition and adversarial nature in present-day Russian criminal procedure. In order to form an overall picture of the ‘waiver of rights’, the article
  describes its distinctive features and elements that characterize it. Additionally, the theoretical aspects of the waiver of rights in present-day Russian criminal procedures, as well as the
  legal regulation of a waiver, are analyzed. A waiver of subjective rights is understood as an
  expression of a legal person’s will in terms of failure to behave as provided for by objective
  law, which is characterized by voluntariness, awareness, and freedom of choice. It is asserted
  that any non-realization of rights by a subject is not considered a waiver. The difference is
  demonstrated in the understanding of the concept ‘waiver of rights’ in the approaches of the
  European Court of Human Rights, the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation, as
  well as in the interpretation of the rules of criminal procedural legislation, which regulates
  a person’s ability to waive the rights granted to them by the Supreme Court of the Russian
  Federation. The article states that the disposition principle of legal regulation, applied by the
  legislator to participants in criminal proceedings defending their personal interests, presupposes the legislatively established possibility of a person to refuse to exercise the right unless
  it violates the more important public interest. Attention is given in the article to the necessity
  of guarantees that ensure voluntariness, awareness, and freedom of choice in case of a person’s
  waiver of their rights.
