Judicial Acts in the Civil Proceedings of the Russian Federation: Organization of Archival Storage and Use in the Digital Era

The creation of a new model for organizing archival business in technologically developing courts of Russia is carried out in the context of the intersection of powers of authorized state bodies, go­vernment bodies at various levels, federal government institutions created by the Russian Federation and government agencies of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as local government bodies. The purpose of the undertaken research is to identify problems in organizing archival storage of decisions of the courts of first instance - decisions according to which cases were resolved on the merits during civil proceedings. These judicial acts are documents of permanent storage and are included in the Archive Fund of the Russian Federation. 
Currently, problems that could not be clearly resolved in the content of paper document flow have received additional context in connection with the use of new forms of creation, transmission and storage of judicial information within the framework of platform solutions. At the same time, the key issues of cooperation in this area are: the ability of the created digital environment to level out the annual increasing needs for archival storage space, as well as the parameters for organizing the storage and use of electronic archival documents, including documents in electronic form.
The implementation of the research objectives was facilitated by systemic, structural-functional and comparative methods of scientific knowledge.
Proposals have been formulated to improve the organizational support for the activities of courts through the development and conclusion of a set of Agreements (agreements) on cooperation, both between Rosarkhiv and the Judicial Department of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, and between interested structures in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in order to establish unified rules of interaction when transferring documents to permanent storage in state (municipal) archives.
