We also can divide it into static or dynamic,litigation or non-litigation.Secondly we discuss its status in law and probative force.We also think that the electronic evidence can not be put in the traditional types of evidence and it has strange force in law based on its objectivity,legality,connection to the case.Finally we present law of electronic evidence in different countries such as America,Canada,France,Japan,so that we can know more about this in our country.From this part we also discuss some problems about electronic evidence in reality.In order to improve this area,we put out many ideas of improvement.
