The Judiciary is going paperless in efforts by Chief Justice David Maraga to prepare the courts to handle cases online. Maraga says in the practice directions that filing documents to be lodged or filed in court will be by electronic means. “All parties shall, at all stages of the court process and during the trial, use technology for purposes of information exchange,” the rules read. Every person who files a document in court shall electronically serve the document to parties through the address contained in the electronic system. “Upon electronic service of a document, the system shall generate and post into the filer’s account a notice of service,” the manual reads.
