Objective
Rules governing the admissibility of electronic evidence are very diverse across Europe and are continuously challenged by the evolution of technological devices. Today, all criminal courts are confronted with the question of whether or not electronic evidence presented in criminal proceedings is admissible.
This conference aims to share advanced knowledge and promote the exchange of experience and best practice between judges, prosecutors and lawyers in private practice who deal with criminal proceedings involving e-evidence.
It will give participants insights into the strategies and techniques used in different European countries and contribute to crossborder cooperation among Member States’ authorities.
Key topics
- Definition of 'electronic evidence': practical examples of analogue and digital evidence
- Legal implications of electronic evidence (collection, evaluation and admissibility)
- Impact of electronic evidence on criminal proceedings
- Insights into different national EU criminal justice systems regarding the handling of e-evidence in court
Who should attend?
Judges, prosecutors, lawyers in private practice and ministry officials active in the field of criminal law.
