电子证据保全公证若干问题研究

电子证据保全公证属于中国公证机构保全证据公证业务范围,具有启动方式被动、无需提供担保、保全措施中立等特点。该文分析了电子证据保全公证在保全对象、申请审查、保全措施、公证书效力等方面与传统证据保全公证的不同,认为需要通过相关立法对其程序规则加以明确。目前中国公证机构仅对电子数据取得行为进行保全公证,随着电子数据鉴定技术的发展,在证据保全公证中引入电子数据原始性公证已不存在技术障碍,为此,该文提出应从法理、效力等层面对电子数据原始性公证展开研究。

Issues on the Notarization of Electronic Evidence Preservation

As to public notary services,the notarization of electronic evidence preservation(NEEP) is characterized by the passive initiation,no guarantees,neutrality and etc.NEEP helps not only to overcome the inherent defects of electronic data,but also to minimize the cost of evidence adduction.Different from the traditional notarized evidence preservation,NEEP requires the relevant legislation to clarify its procedure.At present,NEEP involves only the conduct of electronic data acquisition in China’s notary institutions.With the development of electronic data identification techniques,there have been no technical obstacles to notarize the aboriginality of electronic data.Therefore,it is necessary to study the notarization of electronic data’s aboriginality from the perspect of the legal theory and the effectiveness.
