abstract
The article is dealing with some legal aspects of digital forensics from the viewpoint of the countries where digital forensics is not (yet) often used investigation method, and digital evidences are not everyday evidence means. The questions discussed in the article should be answered at the beginning of the establishment the proper and legally accepted relation between digital forensics and law (the stress is, however, on criminal law, because the author is working in this field). The main goal of the article is to open some questions and to offer some possible answers. However, it has to be stressed that there is no universal answers on the questions about relation between digital forensics and law. While digital forensics is based on the similar principles and rules all around the world, the law is pretty much specific for almost each country. Besides, different levels of technical and informational development of the countries have to be taken into consideration. Even if questions from the article are already solved in some countries, they have just opened in the other ones, so it can be stated these questions are going to be relevant for some time.
