Abstract
Existing theories about the classification of the criminal procedural form have undergone significant changes in the modern world. Relevant is the allocation and legal definition of new forms of criminal procedure, because the rapid development of new technologies and the penetration of digitalization in all spheres of social life dictate new conditions for the implementation of justice in criminal cases.
Purpose of the work: to develop new approaches to the typology of criminal procedural forms, to formulate prospects for the development of remote forms in criminal proceedings, as well as forms using artificial intelligence.
Results, brief conclusions. Having studied the genesis of theoretical ideas about the criminal procedural form, the main approaches to its classification, we can conclude that its nature has changed due to the transformation of traditional concepts about the procedures for disclosure, investigation and consideration of criminal cases in court. Therefore, the author’s classifications of forms of criminal proceedings were proposed, their features were studied, characteristic features and prospects of consolidation in the modern criminal procedure law were identified.
