The impact of digitalization of justice on the transformation of legal impact mechanisms

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze how the process of digitalization of justice can affect changes in the mechanisms of legal influence.

In connection with this goal, we can identify the following research objectives:

1. Consider the concept of digitalization of justice.
2. To study the factors and features of modern society that affect the legal impact.
3. To investigate the features of digitalization of legal impact.
4. Consider digitalization as a tool for improving justice.

Research methods. In this article, we used general scientific (comparison, analysis, deduction) and private scientific (formal legal, method of interpretation of legal norms, comparative legal) methods.

The results of the study. One of the key mechanisms of digital legal impact is the introduction of electronic justice. This includes the use of electronic systems for filing and reviewing lawsuits, as well as conducting court sessions in an online format. Such innovations can significantly reduce the time for reviewing cases and make justice more accessible to citizens.

Conclusion. The general directions for improving the legal regulation of procedural legal relations implemented in electronic format are: creation of a block of legal norms concerning the acceptance or refusal to accept a statement of claim filed in electronic form; regulation of the procedure for securing, attaching, authenticating, examining electronic evidence and evidence submitted in electronic form, as well as the procedure for examining physical and written evidence in a court session conducted in the format of a video conference call; settlement of the consequences of the absence of an audio protocol of the court session or inconsistency of the minutes of the court session with its audio version.
