About this session
Digital material now lies at the heart of many criminal cases, yet its acquisition, interpretation, and presentation continue to raise difficult questions of reliability, disclosure, and proportionality. This session will focus on the practical realities and the legal principles practitioners must grapple with daily, including mobile phone evidence, messaging platforms, and social media material.
