Modernisation of the

Judiciary

• Conducting legal proceedings online in

civil, administrative and supervision

• Paper case files make way for digital case

files

• Personal contact remains

• The judge directs and can ensure a tailor-

made approach

• The judge becomes a supervisor

Modernisation in Supervision

The judge supervises the work of the

receiver or administrator in:

• Liquidations/bankruptcies;

• Debt rescheduling;

• Protective guardianship

The judge will increasingly be carrying

out this supervision online via Mijn

Rechtspraak.

Criminal law

• Advance digital court reform?

• Sober ambition: digitize paper

• Quite succesful strategy

• Started in 2014:

• 100% digitized casefiles for (traffic) violations

• 90% digitized trials for single judge courts

(smalle crimes, punishments up to one year

imprisonement)

• 20% digitized files for courts that handle

serious crimes.

• 85% of all the files is digitized.

• Biggest challenge is implementation.

Ongoing digitalisation

Next step:

Digital transformation:

How can we use data in an other way.

Some innnovation we would like to start

with:

-file preparation with AI

-start experimenting with speech to text

and maybe later speech to report.

-database for consist punishmnent

assesment
