Abstract

Growing interest of subjects to be involved in electronic information network raises the necessity for a series of procedural measures. The main role in this issue is dedicated to the growth of information types existing in electronic format and its legal aspects which need to establish a stable normative regulation. These problems in their turn create a question on the evidence value of information existing in electronic form. The question is particularly important in the cases when communication between the parties to a civil dispute is in electronic form. The aim of evidence proceedings in procedural regulation is to develop preconditions for the court to clarify the true conditions of the case. To achieve the aim an appropriate procedural form, which would let the judge and other parties to the process ensure as conveniently and effectively as possible to show and try true conditions of the case and to clear the necessary evidence to make information technologies serve the litigation purposes more effectively, is necessary. The solutions to those questions are closely linked to the understanding of the electronic evidence essence, as well as to determine its place in the trial process. While writing the article the following research methods have been used: historical method, descriptive method, analytical method, deduction method, comparative method, analogy method.
