ON THE POSSIBILITY OF EXPANDING THE CONCEPT OF "COPY" IN FORENSIC HANDWRITING EXAMINATION
The possibility of expanding the number of features that are evaluated by an expert when deciding on the suitability of a copy of the handwritten requisite for the production of handwriting examination is considered. The examples of the benefits of such an extension from the point of view of expert practice are given as well as the examples illustrating significant differences in the quality of copies of handwritten details obtained in various ways and under different conditions (modified document surface geometry, lighting, file resolution, type of printing device, image fixing method, etc.). There are examples of the benefits of such an extension from the point of view of the trial given. A list of criteria is proposed, the characteristics of which should not only be assessed, but also described by an expert in the text of an expert report. The examples of some inaccuracies and logical contradictions in some expert conclusions drawn from copies of handwritten requisites are provided.
