The article is devoted to the problem of determining and proving the amount of compensation for moral damage, caused by unlawful criminal prosecution. Special attention is paid to the practice of proving the damage in court decisions. The author provides classification of circumstances, that need to be proved upon trial, and separates these circumstances into prejudicial and individual peculiarities of the victim that require proof, as well as depth and degree of the victim’s physical and moral suffering. This approach allows revealing shortcomings of proving. When courts pass their judgments in relation to this category of acts, they rarely assess the victim’s individuality. Refusal to prove the depth and degree of moral damage and to take personal individuality into account results in oversimplified and unmotivated decisions. The author comes to the conclusion that the current court practice is in conflict with the civil procedural code. In the author’s opinion, it is necessary to create rules for determining the amount of moral damage and carrying out mandatory examinations for assessing the victim’s individual characteristics.
