Civil Procedure and Digital Technology: The Digitalization of the Judiciary and Civil Court Proceedings in the Czech Republic and Associated Problems.

The article deals with the issue of digitalization of the judiciary and civil court proceedings. It clearly divides digitalization into institutional digitalization related to the judiciary as a whole and procedural digitalization, i.e., digitalisation within the framework of court proceedings. In its introduction, it focuses on institutional forms such as electronic systems and registers, in the second part it defines specific forms of digitalization within the current regulation of civil court proceedings, i.e., service via the public data network, electronic case management, recording of hearings, use of video-conferencing and finally also decision-making in the form of electronic payment orders. The paper highlights the problematic aspects of digitalization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
