Supreme Court Broadens Scope of e-Court System

The Supreme Court (“SC”) has finally introduced a new framework for the implementation of the electronic court (“e-Court”) system through the issuance of Regulation No. 1 of 2019 on the Administration of Cases and Legal Proceedings in Courts via Electronic Means (“Regulation 1/2019”). Previously, matters pertaining to the e-court system were addressed under Regulation of the SC No. 3 of 2018 on the Administration of Cases and Legal Proceeding in Courts via Electronic Means (“Regulation 3/2018”), which has now been repealed and replaced.[1]
