论电子证据在我国新修《民事诉讼法》中的法律地位

Legal Status of Electronic Evidence in the Revised Civil Procedure Law

新修订的《民事诉讼法》确立了电子数据的法律地位,这就产生了电子数据和电子证据的关系问题,进而影响了视听资料的法律地位。在分析概念的基础上,从信息电子技术的角度对三者进行了重新定位,即视听资料和电子数据分别是信息电子技术发展的不同阶段的产物,前者是模拟技术的产物,后者是数字技术的产物。由于电子证据是一个广义的概念,于是,笔者主张将视听资料和电子数据合并纳入电子证据的范畴,这样有利于构建统一的电子证据规则。

The new amendments to the Civil Procedure Law establishes the legal status ot electromc data, then the problem of relationship between electronic data and electronic evidence arose, thereby affecting the legal status of the audio visual materials. On the analysis of the concept, the paper re-positions the electronic data, electronic ew idence and audio visual materials from the technical point of view. The audio-visual information and electronic data are a product in the different stages of the development of information electronic technology, the former is a prod- uct of the analog technology, and the latter is a digital technology product. As electronic evidence is a broad con- cept, so I advocated the merger of audio-visual materials and electronic data included in the scope of electronic evi- dence~ this will held build unified electronic evidence rules.
