Studying the personality of the accused in a jury trial has essential features stated by rules of Chapter 42 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. At the same time, rules of this chapter with reference to the researched question have no definite interpretation. The analysis of practice of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation indicates that. As a result of studying the practice of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation it is possible to make a conclusion that the scope of studying the defendant's personality in a jury trial is growing. According to the higher judicial body, announcement of the data on previous convictions of the defendant is possible if it is necessary for researching the characteristics of crime elements. Short remarks of witnesses on the defendant's personality are not infringement of provisions of Art.335, P.8 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Russian Federation. The study of the defendant's personality is admissible if the parties do not object. The analysis of the practice of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation and the points of view stated in legal literature allows making a conclusion on the necessity of adjustment of the criminal procedure legislation for the purpose of realization of guarantees provided by the content of such categories as competitiveness and equality. Thus, we believe that judicial studying of the personality of the accused with participation of jury should have a broader consideration. It is admissible to conduct such research in cases when it is connected with establishing the characteristics of elements of a crime. It is also necessary to allow the defendant to negate the information on the defendant's personality brought for discussion by the other party, including calling witnesses for this purpose. It is necessary to conduct the settlement of a question on possibility of recognition of the defendant as deserving leniency after giving an accusatory verdict in the presence of jury. There should be a possibility of calling witnesses to receive information on the defendant's personality by requests of the parties or initiative of the chairperson.
