The present study considers certain issues of de-termining the legal basis for the use of digital tech-nologies in criminal proceedings in the Russian Federation. The purpose of the research is to deter-mine the place of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation among the legal acts regu-lating the specified use of digital technologies. The relevance of the study is determined by the expan-sion of digitalization in the criminal process in Rus-sia. The novelty of the research is to identify the legal basis of the criminal process in Russia in the context of the use of digital technologies. In the course of the work, domestic criminal procedure norms regulating these issues, the results of socio-logical research on introduction of digital technolo-gies in public life, the opinions and positions of leading Russian and foreign (Republic of Kazakh-stan) scientists were examined. As a result of the research, the author comes to the conclusion that the legal basis for the use of digital technologies in criminal proceedings should be the norms of the law contained in the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation and based on the Constitution of the Russian Federation.
