Sana'a: The Minister of Justice and Human Rights, Judge Mujahid Ahmed, inaugurated on Sunday the electronic lawsuit and services portal, which will be implemented in newly established courts in New Sana'a, Public Funds in Sana'a Province, as well as the Endowments and Agriculture Courts in the capital.
According to Yemen News Agency, the system is described as a turning point in registering and processing cases, as well as notifying involved parties in both civil and criminal lawsuits. The Minister emphasized that this system is a step toward the digital transformation and automation of court operations, streamlining procedures from case registration to notifying disputing parties.
Judge Mujahid noted that the system, accessible via the electronic lawsuit portal (https://judg.moj.gov.ye:8065), will address issues related to exploitation and corruption in document handling. It establishes a direct link between the court and defendants, allowing them to submit data and responses electronically and pay any applicable legal fees through the court's revenue system.
He explained that these measures aim to reduce procedural delays and address irregularities in various types of lawsuits. The system aligns with Article 105 of the Procedures Law, aiming to curb malicious defenses and eliminate corruption, while organizing case files chronologically and ensuring data security.
The financial affairs official at the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights highlighted that the portal saves litigants time, effort, and money, allowing them to obtain case file copies without additional fees. This project results from continuous efforts by engineers and staff under ministry supervision, as part of a vision to modernize the justice sector's digital infrastructure.
Osama Abdulkhaleq Sharafuddin, Director of Websites Management at the Judicial Information Center, demonstrated the portal's capabilities, including pages for creating, processing, and printing lawsuits and responses. The project aims to develop electronic judicial services, enhance court efficiency, and reduce transaction processing time through a unified and secure network.
The initiative is among the ministry's prominent technological achievements, aligning with modern advancements and contributing to building a modern justice system that meets Yemeni society's aspirations for effective, swift, and secure justice.
