Conducting Forensic Multidisciplinary Examinations and Sets of Forensic Examinations Using Specific Expertise in Economics

Abstract

The quality of forensic examination depends on a forensic expert’s qualification and his/her in-depth and responsible research on objects, the investigation of which arose during pre-trial investigation or trial. Currently, expert methodologies for conducting multidisciplinary forensic economic examinations and sets of forensic examinations require improvement, especial-ly in light of wartime conditions. Multidisciplinary examination reflects contemporary theoretical trends by integrating legal norms into practical application to address urgent tasks in pre-trial investigations and court proceedings. The most efficient approach is to use a set of methods and technical means that give rise to new branches of scientific knowledge, determine the regularities of their practical significance, and establish interdisciplinary links. At the same time, multidisciplinary examination demonstrates high efficiency and broad possibilities through the combined and synthesized application of knowledge from diverse scientific fields and technical tools in addressing tasks assigned to a forensic expert. Sequential conduct of various types of forensic examinations during the resolution of multidisciplinary tasks in some cases ensures the reliability of expert conclusions and optimizes the judicial process. Multidisciplinary examination conclusions have a varied impact on the decisions made by the parties to the dispute. Therefore, improving the methodology of conducting multidisciplinary forensic examinations or sets of forensic examinations during the resolution of complex issues, which often arise in conditions of martial law, is relevant. This allows for the determination of unified approaches to addressing problematic aspects of such research.
