The article is devoted to the analysis of the legal status of the prosecutor in proceedings on administrative offenses. The author identifies the fragmentary and incomplete legislative regulation of the prosecutor’s participation in the administrative and delict process, which leads to uncertainty regarding his procedural role. Particular attention is paid to the problem of distinguishing supervisory and accusatory functions and to the content of the prosecutor’s opinion in cases of administrative offenses. A number of proposals are argued to support the formation of a coherent model of the prosecutor’s participation in administrative jurisdiction.
