On the issue of new forensic methods for establishing the limitation period for the execution of document details

Abstract

The author critically examines the original forensic technique of “copying fragments of signature strokes (handwritten records) moistened with a system of solvents”. The provisions of this method contain the statement that the color of the coloring substance can be reliably determined when the studied document details were performed. The expert determines the categories of color shades visually (by eye). The comparative stage of the expert study is based on comparing the color of the dye used to make the document under study with the color scheme of the dye details of a similar method of execution, acting as comparison samples. As a result of the comparison of the colors of the dyes that were used to perform the studied details, and possibly the sample details, the expert has a personal opinion about the prescription of the studied document details. It is assumed that such a “technique” allows you to reliably establish the prescription of the details of the studied documents. The relevance of theoretical and practical analysis of the provisions of this “methodology” is associated with its active and unjustified use in solving expert problems in arbitration, civil and criminal proceedings.
