Abstract: The article is devoted to the study of the problem of defining the concept and classification of types of digital technologies used in the administrative and jurisdictional process in the Russian Federation. The author emphasizes that the Russian legislation currently lack a single and generally accepted definition of digital technologies, which makes it difficult to apply them in practice. This creates legal gaps that affect the effectiveness of administrative and jurisdictional activities, reducing transparency and speed of case review. It is noted that there is no consensus in the scientific research environment, where different scientists propose different approaches to the interpretation of this concept, which leads to disagreements in theoretical understanding. This makes it difficult to develop unified legal solutions aimed at the effective use of digital technologies in the legal field. A set of scientific cognition methods was used. General scientific, private scientific, as well as special methods of cognition were used. Observation, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, as well as the system method and the method of structural analysis were used main methods of research. The problem of technological lag in the administrative and jurisdictional process has been identified, which negatively affects its effectiveness and relevance. The types of digital technologies that are currently used in one way or another in the administrative and jurisdictional process, including the use of digital evidence and the automation of many stages of case review, are studied. The draft laws on digitalization of proceedings in cases of administrative offenses, their impact on judicial practice and law enforcement are analyzed. The research methodology includes an analysis of legal norms and existing judicial practice on the use of digital evidence. The author concludes that one of the primary ways to solve current problems should be the inclusion of key concepts related to electronic evidence in the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, as well as a uniform regulatory definition of the place of electronic evidence in the evidentiary process, which will increase the effectiveness of law enforcement and improve the observance of citizens' rights.

Abstract: The article analyzes the use of modern digital technologies for proving in the administrative offenses proceedings. It examines how technologies such as video recordings, audio recordings, data analysis software, as well as specialized equipment are actively used to collect, store, process and present evidence in administrative cases. Special attention is paid to electronic evidence, which is information received, processed and provided in digital form. This evidence can serve to confirm various facts or circumstances directly related to administrative offenses. The numerous advantages of electronic evidence, such as their accessibility, high reliability, as well as the possibility of rapid and widespread dissemination, are emphasized. The reliability of these proofs is ensured by establishing their integrity, authenticity and accuracy. The research methodology includes an analysis of legal norms and existing judicial practice on the use of electronic evidence, such as electronic documents, video and audio recordings, and others. In the framework of administrative offences proceedings, electronic evidence may include a wide range of data, such as electronic documents, e-mail, video surveillance recordings, digital photographs, audio recordings, as well as other types of digital data, including metadata, log files, data from mobile devices and information from cloud storage. Their use may require confirmation of their authenticity, legal force and full compliance with legislative norms and standards. The article also examines the features of the legal definition of the concept of "electronic evidence" and suggests possible ways to improve legislation. A theoretical justification is proposed for the introduction of innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence, which can solve several key tasks in court proceedings, including automation of evidence analysis processes, although it is associated with certain difficulties, ethical issues and potential risks.

Abstract: The research subject is the nature of legal relations in the sphere of government control of creation, launching and use of information systems. The author classifies legal relations as those related to the creation of state information systems (creation, launching, use, support, development, decommission) and connected with their use (delivery of information, access to information, use of state information systems), and those connected with the ownership right to state information systems and their components. The author analyzes the object, subject composition and the content of such legal relations. To characterize each group, the author uses the method of generalization. The author concludes that the relations, connected with the creation of state information systems, are of administrative-legal nature. At the same time, the relations if the field of their use are connected with the information inside the information system, and therefore can be classified as information legal relations. The author’s classification and conclusions are fundamentally important for information and administrative law.

Abstract: The research subject is the four official (government-supported) federal websites specialized in the acceptance of citizens’ electronic appeals: The Single Portal for Central and Local Government Service; the online portal of pre-trial appeal against central and local government services; the online portal “Your Control”; the website “Russian Public Initiative”. The author analyzes the universal government-supported websites, but not the websites of particular governing bodies created in the pursuance of the Federal Law “On the provision of access to the information about the activities of central governing bodies and local governments”. The author applies the following methods: dialectics, abstraction, analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, the formal-legal method, the method of intersectoral legal studies, and the comparative-legal method. The present article is one of the first complex studies of websites, specialized in the acceptance of citizens’ appeals, analyzing all the existing Russian specialized government-supported websites on the Internet. The author considers the legal framework of these websites’ functioning and the algorithm of their work with citizens’ appeals. The author analyzes the problem of anonymity of electronic appeals and its solution by means of the registration on The Single Portal for Central and Local Government Service. The author detects the advantages of specialized websites in comparison with other ways of lodging and processing of citizens’ appeals: federal coverage (the appeal can be lodged with any governing body connected to the information system); convenience (appeals can be sent electronically from any place with access to the Internet including a mobile phone); compatibility (all the mentioned websites operate on the base of the single applicant identification system and are interconnected); consideration procedure transparency (application processing by a governing body is reflected on the applicant’s personal account). The research can help improve the work with electronic applications and increase the quality of their processing by governing bodies.

Abstract: In the context of the modern conditions of development of the information society and the formation of information policy, databases are the most important instrument of solving the problem of the state’s information resources harmonization. The widespread use of electronic information arrays in the work of public authorities proves the necessity and the importance of distinguishing such databases as an independent type, and establishing a special legal regime for them. But so far, the study of the legal nature of databases and the problems of their legal regulation has been carried out within the civil law science. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to study the legal nature of public databases as an object of information legal relations of a complex character. The research methodology is based on general scientific and special methods of cognition: modeling and comparison, analysis, deduction and induction, the logical, formal-legal and interpretation research methods. The author reveals the features and the peculiarities of the legal nature of databases, which are formed and applied in the sphere of state and municipal administration. On the base of the analysis of the categories “public authority” and “public interest”, the author concludes that the general significance of public activity is an essential aspect of public authority and the essence of publicity as a characterizing feature of public databases.

Abstract: The article deals with the legal status of users of government information systems as one of the main elements of the legal regime of such systems. The author analyzes the normative legal base regulating the relations concerning the information systems created on the basis of Federal laws with the aim of identifying "the best practices" and developing an optimal model of legal regulation. The author analyzes the gaps and inconsistencies in the current regulatory framework. The author applies general scientific and special methods including the dialectical method, the methods of formal logic, and the comparative method. The study proves that information in government information systems is a type of information about the activities of state bodies. This information is public a priori. The author shows the importance of formalizing the reasons for restricting the access to information in government information systems, and the importance of their compliance with the information kept in the register of Federal information systems. The author comes to the conclusion that the categories of users having access to confidential information, the composition of the provided information, the purpose of its use, and the method of access should be contained in statutory acts.

Abstract: The article is prepared within the scientific research work “Improvement of legal regulation of information relations in the executive authorities system”. The research focuses on the improvement of the contemporary administrative and information legislation, the development of scientifically grounded proposals aimed at legal regulation of systematization and codification of functions and responsibilities within the system the executive authorities in the context of the developing information society. The author analyzes the existing systematization of functions and responsibilities within the system of executive authorities for the purpose of optimization of state (local) administration in related spheres, and improvement of the procedures of interaction between state, physical and legal entities; reveals the advantages and shortcomings of classifiers application in the sphere of management according to the parameters of the system of executive authorities, functions of executive authorities, classifiers, registers and standards of documenting managerial information in terms of the resources of information technologies. The main research methods are analysis and synthesis. The author also applies the general scientific method, the comparative-legal method and the system approach. The author concludes that in the context of the information state and interdepartmental interaction, separate application of various classifiers is insufficient, therefore they should be created in the electronic form, since the paper form of registration of complicated relativistic connections is inconvenient and unclear; they should have matrixes of interrelations and correspondence of classifiers. Eventually, it is planned to create a single mechanism and a system of management for all information resources, which will provide the correspondence of data about particular objects or subjects of legal relations and their provision in the necessary volume.

Abstract: The author discusses such aspects of the topic as the peculiarities of criminal liability for computer fraud in the legislation of the countries of North and South America, Oceania, Asia and Africa. The topic is of a practical importance, since the transnational character of computer fraud presupposes the necessity to interact with law enforcement bodies and legal systems of other states. Such cooperation is only possible provided that there is a clear understanding of national peculiarities of liability imposition. The author applies the set of general scientific and special methods of cognition. The methodology of the research is based on the dialectical method with its requirements for objectivity, comprehensiveness, historicism and clarity of truth. The author applies the methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison and measurement. The formal-legal and the comparative-legal methods are used as special scientific methods. The group character of an analyzed crime is often recognized as its main feature. In certain countries the abuse of authority, the misuse of the Internet, and minor or senile age of the aggrieved person can be considered as matters of aggravation. It should be mentioned that sometimes change, destruction of blocking of computer data serves not as a constructive, but as a qualifying feature of computer fraud.

Abstract: The article concerns the issues regarding the need to reveal administrative offences in the Internet against the copyright on the initiative of the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications without any prior claims by the title holder. Social communications have came to the stage of development when most of such offences are situated in the Internet. The author studies the issue of whether there is need to bring an offender to administrative responsibility when a title owner did not claim the violation of his right. When writing this article the author applied the methods of analysis, analogy, modeling, studies of normative legal acts and legal practice. Technical advancement causes growth of offences committed in the Internet. Studies of the subject allow one to state that today the title owner sometimes does not even know that his rights are being infringed, so there is need to reveal administrative offences against copyright in the Internet on the initiative of government bodies.

Abstract: Due to the development of informatization processes in public management, state civil officials get involved into a whole system of information-related legal relations. This is why it is almost impossible to imagine their supervisory, permitting and jurisdiction activities without obtaining and using necessary information. Taking this into account, at a modern stage it is very important to develop a new model of administrative law regulation of information relations in the system of state civil service. It is very important that such a model takes into account all new problems of the global informatization of a modern society.
