The article deals with the issues of ensuring criminal procedural proof by disclosing its defining features - the subject and limits of proof. Disclosure of the subject and limits of proof is considered in correlation, in their causal relationship. The justification of consideration of the subject of proof as a goal of criminal procedural proof, and limits of
proof as a means of achieving the goal is given.
The subject of proof, as a system of circumstances to be proved, informs the focus on achieving the goal of criminal procedural proof. The limits of proving are considered as providing means of achieving the goal of criminal procedural proving by virtue of their defining properties of establishing the boundary of cognition on the basis of collected,
verified and evaluated evidence.
