Abstract
This thesis examines the procedural foundations of the seizure and examination of digital evidence from mobile devices on the basis of the Criminal Procedure Code as amended by Law No. O‘RQ-1003 of 21 November 2024, the Law “On Forensic Examination” No. O‘RQ-249, the Law “On Operational-Search Activities” No. O‘RQ-344, Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 778 of 17 September 2019, and other applicable normative legal acts. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the fact that, for the first time in national jurisprudence, the procedural chain of seizing and examining digital evidence from mobile devices is treated as a unified object of analysis and is subjected to comparative-legal study with international sources, including the Riley v. California (2014) case and the NIST SP 800-101 standard. The analysis has established the absence in national legislation of a unified procedural order for the seizure and forensic examination of mobile devices. Three practical proposals have been formulated to eliminate this legal gap: the introduction of a special provision into the Criminal Procedure Code, the adoption by the Cabinet of Ministers of a national methodological guide, and the harmonisation of the sanction regime through an interagency instruction.
