Summary/Abstract: The paper compares two differentiated (simplified) procedures established in the Bulgarian Code of Criminal Procedure: plea bargaining and abbreviated judicial proceedings. They share a common basis – the confession of the defendant, and a common aim – accelerating of criminal proceedings, but still they have many differences which need theoretical explanation. The positive and negative features of the two proceedings are discussed and some proposals de lege ferenda are made.
