Overview
Evidence placed before a court can by physical, documentary or digital. But as digital assets and interactions continue to evolve, how will this impact the ways lawyers admit and prove evidence?
The scope of digital evidence is ever increasing, and the courts have had opportunities to consider various forms of digital evidence in both civil and criminal proceedings – particularly social media evidence.
But as new kinds of wealth emerge in the metaverse in the form of digital assets, there will inevitably be disputes over ownership, thefts, and breaches of intellectual property.
Will this evolving technological landscape change how lawyers admit and prove evidence?
This course explores this topic in detail, as well as covering:
- different types of digital evidence and how these are sourced;
- how the courts have dealt with digital evidence, crypto assets and smart contracts in civil proceedings;
- how the courts deal with the admissibility and authenticity of digital evidence in criminal trials.
