Abstract:
The article presents some results of a historical and legal analysis of the evolution of the legal institution of sufficiency of evidence in Russian criminal proceedings. The most important legislative acts in Russian history are considered, which reflect the development of the domestic institution of sufficiency of evidence. It is noted that in the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, along with the concept of «sufficient evidence», the concepts of «sufficient data» and «sufficient grounds» are used, which are an example of terminological atavisms, since these terms also, in fact, denote evidence.
