Annotation: The article describes the legal status of the suspect (accused), with whom a pre-trial agreement has been concluded on cooperation, since the analysis of the practice of implementing the norms does not give reason to believe that the versatility of the procedural position of the subject in question is fully taken into account. However, his interest in the outcome of the preliminary investigation raises questions about what effect can be achieved, taking into account the changes made to the current legislation. A person must clearly understand in what capacity he will act in a particular criminal case. Therefore, the lack of an opportunity to obtain clarifications regarding his rights, obligations and liability for violation of established requirements may lead to a violation of the rights of other participants in criminal proceedings. The article also pays attention to the consideration of the interdependence of the rights and obligations of the specified person with the legal guarantees of other participants in criminal proceedings and the rationale for the need to resolve a number of legal issues in order to eliminate possible negative consequences of law enforcement activities.
