Abstract
The purpose of the study is to analyze existing points of view in various branches of legal knowledge, highlight the characteristics of judicial protection in criminal cases and formulate its definition.
Research methods: the general philosophical dialectical method of scientific knowledge, the general scientific method of knowledge, expressed in analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, as well as special scientific methods of knowledge.
The author comes to the conclusion that the main features of judicial protection of individual rights in criminal proceedings are the judicial body, object, subject, procedure, universality, independence, situationality, individualization, instantiation, as well as judicial powers and judicial jurisdiction. Based on these features, the author offers the definition of judicial protection in criminal cases – a criminal procedure for the situational exercise of jurisdictional powers by an independent court (judge) in a certain instance, aimed at protecting and restoring all the rights of each individual violated as a result of an individualized material or procedural conflict.
