Title of the presentation: e-CODEX - Realizing cross-border e-Justice in Europe
Abstract: Due to high mobility and European integration, procedures containing cross-border effects are increasing. These procedures require cooperation between different national judicial systems. Indeed, the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) will make judicial procedures more transparent, efficient and economic. At the same time it will help citizens, companies, administrations and legal practitioners to get facilitated access to justice.
This means not only a smoother access to information but also the ability to process cross-border cases efficiently.
