Procedural status of the prosecutor in electronic criminal proceedings

Purpose. To analyze the problems of the prosecutor's procedural status in electronic criminal proceedings. Method. The methodology includes a comprehensive analysis and generalization of the available scientific and theoretical material and the formulation of relevant conclusions. During the research, methods of scientific knowledge were used: comparative-legal, logical-semantic, functional, systemic-structural, logical-normative. The results. The article examines the problems of the prosecutor's procedural status in electronic criminal proceedings. It is noted that today the activities of prosecutor's offices are practically impossible without the introduction of modern information technologies, since the growing information flow requires increasing the efficiency and speed of work. In this context, one of the main tasks of the prosecutor's office should be to consider obtaining, processing and using a large amount of information on matters of public order protection, on fighting crime, as well as other information that ensures the proper organization and work of law enforcement agencies. Scientific novelty. Without information technologies, it is practically impossible to create an effective system of interaction between power structures, which in turn creates obstacles in the field of increasing the level of efficiency and quality of decision-making, ensuring the speed of detection of management errors. Therefore, the key to the effective functioning of the prosecutor's office is modern and proper information support for its activities.
Practical significance. The procedural status of the prosecutor during electronic criminal proceedings is partially regulated by the norms of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine and is in the process of formation. It is necessary to improve the legal mechanisms for the introduction of "electronic justice" tools, as well as to ensure clear interaction of the information systems of courts, the prosecutor's office, the bar, the penitentiary service and other justice bodies.
