Screenshot as electronic evidence in arbitration proceedings

Abstract

The paper examines the definition of electronic evidence and its place in civil proceedings, and analyzes various approaches to assessing screenshots as evidence. Based on the study of judicial practice and scientific works, gaps in legal regulation that hinder the effective use of screenshots in legal proceedings are identified. The paper substantiates the author's point of view on the advisability of using screenshots as electronic evidence in arbitration proceedings. The need for legislative regulation of the issue of screenshots used as electronic evidence in arbitration courts has been identified, since their current status and evidentiary value are not sufficiently defined.
