Electronic courts or e-courts
can play an important role in effective and transparent judicial
system. World over countries are trying to establish e-courts and
alternative dispute resolution mechanisms that can help them in
reduction of burden from traditional courts.
However, this is not an easy task and it requires
tremendous domain specific techno legal expertise. For instance,
e-courts in India are still evolving and till December 2014 we are
still looking forward to establish India’s first
e-court. The e-courts project of India also faced a major
setback when the e-committee refused to use audio and
video recordings in lower courts.
Similarly, the national
litigation policy of India also needs a redraft and
rejuvenation keeping in mind the changed circumstances and policies.
For instance, the national litigation policy and the proposed
amendments in the Indian arbitration law must also include concepts
like e-courts
and online dispute resolution (ODR).
Perry4Law
and Perry4Law’s
Techno Legal Base (PTLB) have initiated few techno legal
projects in the fields of e-courts and ODR. For instance, an Online
Legal Case Management System (OLCMS) of Perry4Law Organisation (P4LO)
has been started as a prototype for our main
project titled E
Courts 4 Justice (EC4J). Updates in this regard would be
available from time to time at our Twitter account named EC4J.
Similarly, in the field of ODR we have started few
initiatives. These include a discussion forum titled Online
Dispute Resolution Mechanism (ODRM) of Perry4Law Organisation (P4LO)
and Online
Case Management System (OCMS) of Perry4Law Organisation (P4LO).
The E Courts 4 Justice (EC4J) project by Perry4Law
Organisation (P4LO) would provide techno legal services to
national and international stakeholders. These techno legal services
would include consultancy, training, skills development, litigation
support, e-filing, e-discovery and many more such services.
We hope various stakeholders would find these
projects of P4LO useful and we look forward to work with various
government, non government, national and international stakeholders
in this regard.
