Electronic courts or
e-courts have a significant role to play in effective and transparent
judicial system. E-courts in India are still evolving and till April
2016 we are still looking forward to establish India’s
first e-court.
Recently the e-court
project of India 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
Organisation (P4LO) has initiated few techno legal
projects in the fields of e-courts and ODR. For instance, the first
ever techno legal Online
Legal Case Management System (OLCMS) of India 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 launch of a
Techno
Legal Centre of Excellence for Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) in
India (TLCEODRI), a discussion forum titled Online
Dispute Resolution Mechanism (ODRM), an ODR
Trainings And Skills Development In India By TLCEODRI,
Online
Disputes Resolution & Cyber Arbitration platform, etc.
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.
