Annotation: The purpose of this work is to study the scientific category of criminal behavior of a person from the positions of the general theory of law and the theory of criminal law. The relevance of the topic is determined by the mass character, repeatability of this criminal law phenomenon, both on the part of a particular individual and other citizens, as well as its insufficient study in the theory of criminal law in comparison with criminal behavior. In the study of criminal law behavior, general scientific and private scientific research methods were used: dialectical, historical, formal-logical, system-structural. Based on the general theory of law and lawful behavior, the article gives the concept of criminal-lawful behavior, its main types and structure. Such forms of implementation of criminal law behavior as the use, execution and compliance with criminal law norms are defined. Socially active, positive (habitual), conformist (passive) and marginal criminal behavior of a person are distinguished and considered.
