Here we discuss the existing theoretical approaches to the solution of the problems of punishment appointment for offences against an individual committed in complicity. There are also some examples from judicial practice on criminal cases, concerning the questions of common basis and special rules of punishment appointment, foreseen by article 67 RF Criminal Code. We analyze the standards of previous and acting criminal legislation (article 17 RSFSR Criminal Code), regulating the punishment appointment for the crime committed in complicity.
