The article analyzes the legal support for electronic document management in Ukraine. It is determined that the introduction of innovative transformations in Ukraine in the context of information technology development involves the use of modern forms and methods of work based on electronic information exchange. Numerous forms and methods that have been used for decades in the field of information and communication relations for information processing have proven to be unjustified and ineffective in the new social and information and innovative realities. Electronic document management has replaced paper document management. The study found that the electronic document management system in Ukraine is undergoing a long path of development and formation. The introduction of electronic document management contributes to the digital modernization of Ukraine. The availability of reformed legislation is important for carrying out qualitative changes, which generates legal certainty of the status of subjects of the process of significant transformations. The electronic form of documents provides the necessary level of information security for participants in legal relations, since the exchange of documents occurs in encrypted form using a qualified electronic signature. It has been established that there is a saving of human and material resources that were previously used for printing, sending and storing documents. Remote advantages provide mobility and convenience of document transfer via electronic document management platforms or e-mail. The implementation of this document management system allows creating electronic archives for more efficient document storage. It has been established that the main effect of introducing electronic document management is resource-based. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account the risks of introducing electronic document management by both state and local government bodies a nd business entities. The state of electronic document management in Ukraine in the field of public administration has been analyzed and ways of its further development have been identified. It has been established that the legal support for electronic document management requires further development, updating, balance, harmonization with international legal norms and standards. Implementation of high-quality legal, institutional, organizational, and managerial transformations in the sphere of public administration in the context of European integration requirements based on the recognition of a person as the highest social value is an urgent vital necessity, which will contribute to the development of Ukraine as a competitive state with a strong economy and advanced technologi es.

The article examines a new object of forensic economic examination – cryptocurrency. The author provides classic definitions of an object of forensic examination and establish the differences of cryptocurrency from the traditionally understood objects of both forensic examination in general and economic examination in particular. The main difference of cryptocurrency from other currencies and objects of investigation is its virtual nature, lack of affiliation with the material world. Two main points of view on the essence of cryptocurrency are analyzed: as a basis and tool for the development of new effective forms of payments, exchange of goods, and as an object and instrument of criminal activity. A definition of cryptocurrency is given as interpreted by the FATF – Financial Action Task Force. It is identified which issues related to the circulation of cryptocurrency can be attributed to the competence of a forensic expert-economist, and which – to the field of computer forensics. The author also describes the features of cryptocurrency that must be taken into account when considering it as an object of forensic economic examination.

The article is devoted to consideration of modern problems of determining the admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence in criminal proceedings. Given the importance of the outlined issues, the main purpose of the study is to characterize each component of the admissibility of such evidence, namely: the proper source of receipt, the proper subject, and the proper method of collection. It is emphasized that the biggest doctrinal problem that creates an obstacle in the definition of such criteria is the lack of a unified scientific vision regarding the concept of digital (electronic) evidence and the definition of its source. The existence of three scientific approaches to the solution of this problem was established, taking into account the author's position on possible ways of its elimination. Some practical aspects related to the problems of compliance with the criteria of admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence during the investigation of criminal offenses are disclosed. On the basis of a systematic analysis of scientific work and judicial practice, it was determined that the difficulty of solving problematic aspects of the admissibility of digital (electronic) evidence is related to their complex technical nature. This is due to the fact that digital (electronic) evidence contains abstract technical and mathematical models, characterized by specific conditions of origin, existence, copying and storage, which significantly differ from other types of evidentiary information. It has been proven that when determining digital (electronic) evidence, such a mandatory feature as relevance to a certain criminal proceeding should be displayed. This is explained by the fact that in a criminal trial, digital (electronic) evidence can only be the information that is of direct importance for a certain criminal proceeding. Another mandatory component of the definition of “digital (electronic) evidence” should be an indication of its specific nature. At the same time, it is inappropriate to recognize the approach when the definitions simultaneously indicate the electronic nature of such information and its concentration on a certain electronic medium. Information that is on a certain electronic medium is electronic and not any other. Otherwise, it leads to duplication and is a logical fallacy. It is suggested that the source of digital (electronic) evidence be considered a digital (electronic) object by means of which this evidentiary information was created, recorded or transmitted. The lack of official definition of digital (electronic) evidence and their sources, in contrast to civil and administrative procedural legislation, is among the shortcomings of the current criminal procedural legislation of Ukraine. However, the definitions proposed by the legislator contain shortcomings, in particular, the fixed definitions of digital (electronic) evidence contain an unjustified opposition of related concepts, such as “information”, “data” and “facts”.

In public procurement, a multitude of data is used, produced, and exchanged in various ways and formats. Laws and regulations often require that the exchange of information takes place through signed and recorded documents, following specific authorization processes. On the other hand, many modern Project Management techniques rely on accurate knowledge of project data, which requires information flow to occur in a structured and digital manner. The concept of an Electronic Document and Records Management System was created for this purpose, to combine document flow and structured information flow. However, in practice, it is difficult to find ready-to-use commercial solutions, and many administrations choose to use traditional document management systems. This work aims to investigate the two requirements independently and then jointly, proposing a clean and simple approach to align them. The chosen approach envisions a two-tier system with defined functional specifications, where the first tier coincides with an existing document management system. The outcome demonstrates how to implement an Electronic Document and Records Management System by retrofitting a traditional document engine. The described approach will be tested through a case study related to a large public construction contract. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article, based on a comprehensive system analysis, examines the theoretical and legal implications of informatization of civil justice as a means of increasing the effectiveness of justice services. The relevance is due to the expanded role of information technologies in all areas of information management activity, including in the sphere of modern ship ownership. The object of the investigation is the ongoing research in the field of justice administration regarding legal disputes with the use of information technologies to meet the needs of the civil process. The methodological basis includes various methods - formal legal, legal, systemic, logical and others. . Electronic justice in the civil process – the law establishes the procedural activity of the court to administer justice to the subordinates, at a distance from the participants in the civil process and a non-documentary form of data transfer (videos, documents, etc.) work with the help of various information technologies such as the Internet, and other telecommunications technologies ‘language, which is an alternative or subsidiary way of combining a completely pure documentary form of data transfer. It is stated that electronic justice is governed by a system of institutional principles, which is based on the system of principles of civil procedural law, which include: the principle of distance, implementation of other methods of electronic document management, the principle Information transparency of justice, which has specificity in line with the principle of accessibility Information about the activities of the ship’s authorities, when placed in open access, information about is considered by the courts on the right, online broadcasts of court meetings, etc. It is stated that the further development of information and communication technologies will naturally place emphasis on the boundaries of the principle of distance, the disruption of which can bring distrust of citizens to court, the clarity and objectivity of the court activities, make statements to the spouses about the role and importance of ship ownership.

Objective: to substantiate the need to identify new contractual constructs (models) taking into account the specific relations associated with the use of remote method of contract conclusion through digital technologies and to study the possible risks for their participants.Methods: along with special legal methods, the method of critical analysis was fundamental for the research process, which allowed us to evaluate and interpret the main sources and norms of civil law in relation to distant transactions. It also allowed assessing the current state of legislation in this area in the context of developing processes of digitalization and technologization of civil-law relations.Results: a critical analysis of the current state of legal regulation of remote ways of concluding contracts is presented, their classification is given. It is concluded that the digital technologies development gives rise to new remote ways of transactions, as well as fills with new content the procedures of contract conclusion, traditional for civil law. The expediency of singling out the concept of a “distant transaction” as a legal category in order to create a special civil-law regime is substantiated, and the basic concept being that of a “distant contract”. Certain types of distant contracts are analyzed to substantiate the need for special legal regimes in cases when the distant method of contract conclusion is combined with the use of digital technologies. It poses such problems as the distribution of risks of technological failures, hacker attacks, compliance with the balance of interests of the parties taking into account information asymmetry, and the need to protect the weaker party.Scientific novelty: an attempt is made to define such concepts as a “distant contract” and a “distant transaction” and to identify their features. The expediency is substantiated of considering a distant contract as a separate legal construction (model) of the contract. Within this framework, a special legal regime should be developed and fixed, which can be extended to unilateral distant transactions. The problems of legal regulation caused by the use of information technologies are formulated, and legal constructions for their solution are proposed.Practical significance: the final conclusions and proposals can be used both in contractual practice by the participants of civil turnover and for the normative consolidation of the concept and features of “distant contract”, “distant transaction”. A special legal regime can be created, taking into account the specificity generated by the use of digital technologies.

Given the rapid pace of informatization of society, the number of criminal offences involving the use of computers, their software, as well as telecommunications systems is continuously growing. Such illegal actions are characterized by leaving traces, including electronic imagery. They can be evidence of the commission of criminal offences, which explains the development and improvement of methods for their detection, collection, and investigation by law enforcement agencies. However, today such methods of detecting, collecting, and investigating electronic imagery of evidence are separately contained in several scientific papers of Ukrainian and foreign scientists, which allowed comprehensively covering them in this study. The purpose of this study was to review the theory and practice of the activities of authorized entities for the detection, collection, and investigation of electronic imagery of evidence. The study uses a set of various methods, namely scientific cognition of real phenomena and their connections with the practical activities of authorized bodies for the detection, collection, and investigation of electronic imagery (dialectical method), as well as special and general scientific methods of legal science. The study showed as follows: usually, investigators and operational officers detect electronic imagery independently, or as part of an investigative task force during the investigation of criminal offences, or before their commission; the collection of electronic imagery occurs during procedural actions (usually law enforcement intelligence actions) both from technical devices with which a criminal offence was committed, and from those that were attacked. When extracting electronic imagery, it is advisable to involve a suitable specialist (if possible, a cyberpolice officer); an authorized investigator, specialist, and expert are authorized to examine electronic imagery. Expert research of electronic imagery belongs only to experts and is carried out using the following examinations: computer equipment and software products, telecommunications systems and tools, as well as technical and forensic examination of documents. The conducted review will help authorized practitioners restore the memory of knowledge about information about the tools for detecting, collecting, and investigating electronic imagery, which will ensure the effective implementation of the tasks of criminal proceedings

The article is devoted to the scientific analysis of the transformation of the “document” concept as an object of forensic research and to the identification of the main directions of development of forensic documentary science. The methodological basis of the study is the dialectical, formal-logical, formal-legal approaches, and a number of general scientific methods (historical, functional, praxeological). The systematic approach has ensured the comprehensive nature of the study and the unification of its results with a general theoretical conclusion. The scientific novelty lies in the establishment of promising areas for the development of an innovative methodology for conducting forensic document examination in the context of the use of special technical means and the methodology for the use of modern software products. With the development of digital technologies, forensic science, in particular documentary science, has faced a significant number of new objects that require different approaches to research methods and tools. The transformation of the document as an object of forensic document science has significantly increased the demand for innovative technologies for research, making it necessary to integrate science and digital technologies in the investigation of crimes. The increase in the number of offences requiring the examination of electronic data storage devices poses new challenges for forensic experts, requiring modern means of recording and comparing them with standards. Forensic document research has acquired a different meaning and faced new challenges. With the development of digital technologies, forensic documentary requires the improvement of methods and means of researching information storage media. The transformation of the “document” concept has led to its definition as a carrier of information regardless of the way it is recorded. In parallel with the study of the classical written paper document, forensic science has in a short time mastered the methods and means of studying plastic cards, digital storage devices and electronic money. Forensic science defines a document as an object such as video documents, photo documents, film documents, etc. The current level of research is not determined by the traditional comparison with a reference sample, and sometimes such a sample does not exist at all. The research of a document cannot be considered complete without determining the originality of the information it contains, without comparing this information with other possible storage media of the same information.

In connection with the transition of organizations and enterprises of the country from paper to electronic document management and the adoption of regulatory requirements for electronic document management systems and archival storage, the task of creating electronic files becomes relevant. The paper proposes an approach to solving the problem of generating electronic files, which is characterized by sufficient generality and simplicity in the creation of algorithmic and (or) software. The task of forming electronic files is solved by implementing a sequence of operations for binary (paired) comparison of the metadata of an electronic document within the existing (ordered in some way) feature space. Within the framework of the proposed approach, it is possible to obtain in an explicit form the conditions for the belonging of an electronic document to the corresponding electronic file. Fulfillment (non-fulfillment) of these conditions is equivalent to the truth (falsehood) of some very specific predicate, and the structure of this predicate makes it possible to implement the mentioned sequence of comparison operations. In practice, the approach allows you to effectively solve the problem of automated distribution of an electronic document in electronic cases, when some of the details of the electronic document are known.

The social changes that are taking place, such as the digital revolution, affect the work of the archives, largely transforming the nature of their main activities. Personal archives that people create in the process of life are also undergoing significant transformation by replacing analog documents with digital ones and uncontrolled material accumulation, lack of classification and methods of managing electronic documents related to this process. The current situation with personal archives requires arrangement of the processes of accumulation, selection, copying and storage of personal information. In this regard, fund creators need to acquire certain knowledge and skills in this area. The task of archivists is to offer potential fund creators effective and simple methods of managing electronic documents within personal and family archives. Archives in a number of countries publish understandable recommendations on their websites in order to give people an idea of the methods of managing personal archives that exist in a digital format, both at the stage of their creation and when they are archived. The article also examines the types of electronic digital documents that can be used to complete personal funds and the problems that arise in this regard.

The subject. The introduction of electronic technologies into management processes has led to the need to regulate the issues of the use of electronic personnel document management (further - EPDM). In the spring of 2020, Russia was conducting a legal experiment on the use of electronic documents related to work. As part of this experiment, according to the rules established by federal law, individual employers voluntarily refuse to issue certain types of personnel documents in paper form. It concerned employment contract and other contracts with an employee (on financial responsibility, apprenticeship), a vacation schedule, employee statements, as well as regulatory and organizational and administrative documents of the employer on labor (orders on admission, dismissals, penalties, etc.). The results of this experiment became the basis for the introduction of appropriate amendments to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.The main purpose of the study is to develop recommendations for improving the current labor legislation for the legalization of electronic personnel document management as part of a system of measures to achieve the maximum balance of interests of employees and employers.The main methods of the research are the analysis and generalization of judicial practice on labor disputes related to the evaluation of electronic evidence, the practice of using electronic personnel document management by individual employers, both participating and not participating in the legal experiment conducted at the federal level.The main results, scope of application. The preliminary results of above mentioned experiment have been summarized and an assessment of the validity and potential effectiveness of the draft law submitted to the Russian Federal Assembly has been given. The authors propose the results of a critical analysis of the interim results of the legal experiment on the introduction of EPDM. The authors demonstrate the pros and cons of electronic document management in terms of the readiness of the current legislation for it, as well as subjects of labor relations. The innovations of the prepared draft law on the introduction of a new article 22.1 to the Russian Labor Code as well as its positive aspects and some shortcomings are considered. Not only legal and technical shortcomings are indicated, but also some fundamental substantive contradictions. For example, a negligent attitude to the involvement of employees in making managerial decisions in the social and labor sphere due to the establishment of a trade union monopoly in a number of issues of social dialogue when introducing electronic personnel document management. The draft law does not consistently address issues related to security, enhanced qualified signature and the costs associated with obtaining it by an employee. The modern attitude of Russian courts to electronic evidence in labor disputes is demonstrated by the example of judicial practice. These examples demonstrate the most pressing issues of the introduction and use of EPDM, which need to be resolved at the legislative level. There is a need for effective protection of all participants in labor relations in the context of the development of digital technologies and their implementation in the daily life of each person.Conclusions. Adoption of new federal law regulating EPDM was necessary to establish general rules for employee-employer interaction in the digital environment, as well as for legalization of the exchange of electronic documents as a way of labor management.

The article discusses the prospects of using electronic documents and electronic document management in accounting and tax accounting. Changes in this area will lead to a new procedure for the formation and organization of registration of primary documents, internal documents and reports of economic entities. An electronic document can become a generalizing document for counterparties within the framework of the fact of economic activity. The use of electronic documents and electronic document management will automate a large number of accounting and tax accounting procedures. It will also contribute to the wider use of the possibilities of robotics for accounting activities. If the document is drawn up in electronic form, then it must be certified with an electronic signature. The correct use of an electronic signature and its types is essential for identifying the facts of economic activity. The rules of record keeping regarding the use of electronic documents and electronic document management will require significant changes and additions to accounting policies from business entities, both for accounting and for tax accounting.

Forensics as a science and sphere of practical activity cannot exist without a document, which is at the same time the main subject of forensic research, a carrier and a means of recording legal information. A document in Forensics is a basic, ambiguous, generalized concept, the definition and classification of which is not unanimous. The tasks of forensic documentation are: 1) development of forensic classification of documents, which will be based on various criteria; 2) development of methods for detecting the subject of forgery; 3) development of methods for rebuilding the information content of the document or its holder. The tasks of forensic classification of documents depend on the development of forensic properties of all types of modern documents. The study of forensic properties of documents is urgent, as the emergence of new types of documents, including electronic, requires an expansion of the list of documents that are involved in examinations. A document in Forensics is defined as a material object with information recorded on it, which is important for establishing the circumstances of criminal proceedings. The problem of using an electronic document as a source of evidence in criminal proceedings is analyzed in detail from the standpoint of the theory of criminal proceedings and forensic science. An electronic document as a source of judicial evidence is an object that carries information that is important for establishing the circumstances to be proved in criminal proceedings, and exists only in the electronic environment in a form acceptable for use in criminal proceedings. Electronic documents can act as a means of committing crimes in the field of computer information, as well as other crimes using computer technology, can be the object of criminal encroachment or information “traces” that arise during the preparation for crime and commission of criminal acts. A cryptocurrency is added to the subject of forensic research, which is essentially an electronic document, an object of civil rights, has value, turnover, place of storage and owner.

Over the years the system of registration of ships and mortgages in Croatia has passed through significant modifications, all of them made with the intention to ensure the attractiveness of the Croatian Register of Ships and boost the competitiveness of Croatian shipping. With the latest 2019 Act on Amendments to the Maritime Code1 (hereinafter: Amendments) the system of ship registration has completed its long development, from a complex court-administrative procedure to a simple and expeditious one. In the past, the system was organised through separate registers for respective types of maritime objects (craft). Eight Harbour Master Offices, located in eight Croatian ports, had jurisdiction for ship registration and for keeping the Register Books. The Amendments organised the Register as a unified and centralised register, kept in electronic form for all types of maritime objects (navigational, floating and fixed) and maritime objects in construction, excluding war ships and ships constructed for the Armed Forces of the Republic of Croatia or foreign armed forces. The shipowner or the operator or manager of a ship in international trade or the owner or charterer of a yacht of 24 metres or over in length sailing internationally can register a ship or yacht in any Croatian port regardless of the location of its principal place of business. The concept of hypothec/mortgage was developed from “the contractual right of pledge on a ship” equivalent to the civil law hypothec, into the hypothec on a ship adopted in the 2004 Maritime Code, which confers upon the creditor the same rights as an English mortgage. The recognition of documents in English eliminates the need for translation into Croatian formerly required for registration. Now, the procedure for the registration and deletion of ships and mortgages is simple and expeditious.

The purpose of the article is to study the institute of pre-trial investigation and prospects for its further improvement by converting into electronic format. According to the goal, the research aims to develop a position on creating the most optimal model of information and telecommunication system of pre-trial investigation, as well as to study the prospects of its implementation and identify possible issues that may arise during pre-trial investigation in electronic format. The introduction of electronic criminal proceedings is a very important and relevant step that will save significant time, money, reduce the time of consideration of relevant procedural documents, facilitate access of participants within their competence to the relevant materials of criminal proceedings and more. The provisions of the CPC of Ukraine already include attempts by the legislator to introduce electronic procedural proceeding, in particular through the possibility of using an electronic document and creating a Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigation. In addition, on December 15, 2021, the Law of Ukraine "On Amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine on the introduction of information and telecommunications system of pre-trial investigation" came into force, the provisions of which should regulate the procedure of electronic criminal proceedings. Detailed acquaintance with its contents gives the chance to outline a number of essential lacks. The provisions of the Ukrainian legislation and some countries of the world community on the regulation of general requirements for the implementation of electronic criminal proceedings have been summarized. With this in mind, a number of problematic theoretical and applied issues have been identified, on the basis of which scientifically sound proposals have been formulated, which are directly related to making changes and additions to the current legislation.

The purpose of the article is to outline the value of electronic document management for business, in particular, to formulate its advantages in the context of modern digital transformation and global challenges. The research methodology consists of scientific research principles, a systematic approach to identifying the problem, methods of theoretical systematization and generalization (to identify the results and conclusions of previous studies), critical analysis (to critically evaluate the existing positions of the authors), observation, analysis and synthesis (to identify the problems of using electronic document management in business, formulating its main advantages and disadvantages). The scientific novelty lies in the formulated advantages of electronic document management for business in the context of modern challenges of digital transformation and global challenges, including saving money, time and space resources, strengthening the competitiveness of business through the growth of its flexibility and adaptability. Conclusions. There is a rather primitive idea of the benefits of using electronic documentation in business processes. The multidimensionality of the business space, due to the digital transformation of the economy and the modern business environment, determines qualitatively new requirements for the circulation of information; metadata, which is formed in the interaction of business with other economic agents in the digital space, is gaining importance. Having a high-quality electronic document management system will improve both internal efficiency and overall business competitiveness. The use of modern digital data processing systems requires a review of the requirements for the electronic documents themselves, the reduction of classic document details, and their replacement with metadata. This will simplify the procedures for creating documents, reduce the burden of documentary work, linkage of documents with each other, and verification of the document’s legitimacy. The biggest advantage of electronic document management is the ability to index documents and process them using artificial intelligence technologies, which allows you to search for errors and differences from previous operations, predict operations, and use registers of open and official data.

The study made it possible to consider distance work as a event within the labor protection institute. The results of the study make it possible to make clarifications and additions to the existing scientific ideas about the genesis of this institution of labor law and labor legislation. The prerequisites for the modernization of the legal regulation of distance work are revealed: the actual and widespread emergence of the corresponding economic relations; development of technological conditions for widespread use of remote work; adoption and approbation of legislation allowing remote registration of the emergence, change and termination of labor relations. The improvement of legislation took place in the conditions of self-isolation caused by the coronavirus pandemic, in the conditions of the forced digitalization of public relations, in the conditions of the constitution of social partnership in the world of work and the intensification of the application of its principles and mechanism in the practice of rule-making. Prospects for the legal regulation of distance work as an institution are associated with its extension to all categories of the precariat, as well as to all cases of the use of dependent labor. As a part of the labor protection institute, remote work has every chance of first spreading to new forms of dependent labor that have arisen and are emerging in a changing society in the process of preparing for the transition to the sixth technological order (platform employment, labor of economically dependent self-employed contractors, etc.). To do this, this institution should introduce the maximum possibility of differentiating the legal regulation of the relevant relations.
