The article is devoted to the study of the legislation of Russia and foreign countries regulating the issues of exemption from punishment due to illness. The aim set by the author is to conduct a comparative legal analysis of the legal regulation of exemption from punishment due to illness in these countries. The analysis is based on the methods of cognition, systemic and comparative legal, which allowed to identify the main similarities concerning the specifics of exemption from punishment on this basis. So, for exemption from punishment in connection with the disease in Russia and in foreign countries, only a medical basis is sufficient, that is, the presence of a particular disease. The conducted research allowed the author to formulate a number of theoretical conclusions that can later be used to optimize the criminal law norms of domestic legislation.
