Information Technology (IT) has found its way into legal practice and as part of that into the judiciary. IT support of the Judiciary in Europe appeared in 2001. This report provides an impression of three other continents, or, better, of a country in each of these continents: Australia (Australia), Singapore (Asia), and Venezuela (South-America). In addition, updates of the 2001 reports by Norway, Italy and the Netherlands are provided. These countries can be qualified as the best equipped and organized with regard to IT for the judiciary in Europe.
Amongst the issues addressed are electronic filing systems, decision support systems, the employment of knowledge management, and online services, including publication of verdicts. The central issue in the development of IT support for the judiciary world wide appears the use of case management systems.
IT is used as a means to change in most countries. In a very strong way this happened in Singapore, where IT was used to transform an old fashioned organization where it was hard or even impossible to get access to case information to a modern, well-equipped organization.
This book is meant as comprehensive source on the use of IT in legal organizations, in particular the judiciary, for academics, both students and staff, practitioners (attorneys, company lawyers, consultants), and governments.
