Pavel Vladimirovich Krasheninnikov (Russian: Павел Владимирович Крашенинников; born 21 June 1964) is a Russian jurist and politician, chairing the State Duma Committee on State-Building and Legislation since 5 October 2016.

Early life and education[edit]

Krasheninnikov was born in Polevskoy, a town in Sverdlovsk Oblast, 50 kilometers southwest of Sverdlovsk (now Yekaterinburg), on 21 June 1964. He graduated from a building vocational school in Magnitogorsk in 1983 and then studied law in Sverdlovsk Law Institute.[1]

Career[edit]

From 1989 to 1993, Krasheninnikov taught civil law in Sverdlovsk Law Institute (known as Ural State Law Academy since 1992). At the same time, he worked as a legal expert for the Supreme Soviet of Russia.

Federal civil servant (1993-1999)[edit]

In 1993, he was appointed chief of the directorate for civil and economic legislation of the Russian Justice Ministry. From 1996 to 1997, he served as deputy chairman of the State Antimonopoly Committee.

In 1996, Krasheninnikov received his doctoral degree in juridical sciences by defending a thesis "Modern issues of ownership and other property rights in residential premises" in Moscow State University.[2]

In 1997, Krasheninnikov was appointed First Deputy Minister of Justice. From March 1998[3] to August 1999[4] (Sergei Kiriyenko's Cabinet, Yevgeny Primakov's Cabinet, Sergei Stepashin's Cabinet) he served as Justice Minister of Russia. At the same time, he was an ex officio member of the Security Council of Russia.

After leaving office, Krasheninnikov was appointed rector of the Russian School of Private Law, which he headed from 1999 to 2010.

Member of State Duma (1999-present)[edit]

Since 1999 he has been a Deputy of the State Duma,[5] at first representing Union of Right Forces, later joining United Russia. He claimed that it would be easier for him to implement liberal reforms as part of the party of power, rather than through external factions.[6] In 1999, he chaired the Committee on Legislation. After being re-elected in 2003, Krasheninnikov chaired the reformed Committee on Civil, Criminal, Arbitral and Procedure Legislation. He kept his position of the committee chairman both after 2007 and 2011 legislative elections. Since 2016, he has chaired the reformed Committee on State-Building and Legislation.[7]

Legislation issuing[edit]

As MP and Chairman of the Legislation Committee, Krasheninnikov has participated in development of the Civil Code, the Hosing Code, the Civil Procedure Code, the Criminal Procedure Code, the Arbitral Procedure Code and other significant codes and laws. He also was responsible for the transfer of the penal enforcement system from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to the Ministry of Justice. He also participated in the establishment of the Federal Bailiff Service and the Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography.[8][9] He was involved in the design of the new sign for the Russian ruble, among other initiatives. In 2006, he initiated the simplified privatization procedure of dacha allotments (so-called "dacha amnesty"). Krasheninnikov is also considered law draftsman responsible for introducing testamentary foundation, testamentary contract, and spouses' joint will into the Russian legal order.

Another new law drafted by Krasheninnikov is the "A Day for a Day and a Half", which introduced coefficients for the recalculation of prison sentences, taking into account the time spent in pre-trial detention centers and the type of correctional institution, has been implemented. Since 2018, a day in detention center is counted as 1.5 days in a general-regime colony, 2 days in a colony-settlement, and 1 day in a high-security prison. The law went into effect on 14 July 2018, and was retroactive, resulting in the revision of sentences for more than 100,000 convicted individuals.

In 2020, Krasheninnikov was appointed co-chairman (along with Andrey Klishas and Taliya Habrieva) of the working group on the preparation of proposals for amendments to the Constitution of Russia.

In 2021, Krasheninnikov and Klishas introduced a law to harmonize regional authorities across all federal subjects of Russia, which has expanded the grounds for removing governors who have lost the confidence of the President and has removed the federal ban on governors holding office for more than two consecutive terms.[10]

In 2022, against the backdrop of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Krasheninnikov, Klishas, and Irina Pankina proposed a law that would exempt certain categories of convicted individuals and those who have committed minor or moderate crimes from punishment if they join the military during times of mobilization, martial law, or wartime.[11]

Sanctions[edit]

Krasheninnikov is subject to sanctions imposed by Australia, Canada, the European Union, France, Japan, New Zealand, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States in relation to the Russo-Ukrainian war.[12][13]
