During a panel discussion, Judge Michael Kunz from the Vienna Oberlandesgericht (Higher Regional Court) showed the essential functions of the new case management system "Justice 3.0" in Austria. In a nutshell: the years of preparatory work have paid off. Judges and public prosecutors now have access to a digital case management system that offers a wide range of functions:
Users can filter their cases according to a wide variety of criteria, they can also build their own "views," and even create relation tables, where key points of the parties' arguments are compared and linked to the file content. The fact that the system supports fully digital communication with all parties involved is almost taken for granted in Austria. This also includes the use of digital signatures.
The framework for Justice 3.0 was purchased from the Bavarian government, but all functions were developed in Austria. It is to be rolled out to all courts and public prosecutors' offices by the middle of next year. At those departments where it is already available, its use is strongly recommended by the employer.
And if a completely new system is being set up, aren't artificial intelligence components also being used? More about that soon ...
