Main Directions of Improving Access to Justice in Cassation Proceedings Using Digital Technologies

Abstract

The article examines promising directions for improving access to justice in criminal cassation proceedings using modern digital technologies. It is stated that digitalization in this area should expand the possibilities of realization of the right to judicial protection and not create additional procedural barriers or restrictions on ac-cess to justice. The author proposes a system of main directions for digital transformation of cassation pro-ceedings, including creating a mechanism for digital interaction between participants, forming a procedure for remote implementation of procedural rights through personalized electronic access, implementing distributed ledger technology, and developing electronic identification procedures for participants. The necessity of main-taining procedural guarantees while implementing digital innovations is substantiated. Specific amendments to criminal procedure legislation are proposed to implement these directions.
