The Eastern Caribbean Supreme Court (ECSC) through the Office of the Chief Justice is implementing an E-Litigation web portal within all Courts in all the OECS Member States & Territories, for the electronic management of cases filed within the jurisdiction of the ECSC.
This new system replaces the Judicial Enforcement Management System (JEMS) which has currently been in use within all the Courts of the OECS Member States and Territories since the year 2000.
The E-Litigation solution is a highly proven web-based application software developed by CrimsonLogic Ltd, headquartered in Singapore with a branch established in Trinidad and Tobago. The Online solution utilizes CrimsonLogic’s eJudiciary Accelerator (CLA) product.
Implementation, in the first instance, will be done in Saint Lucia, the Virgin Islands and Anguilla during the next nine months. However, full implementation of the e-Litigation solution, in all the remaining Member States of the Eastern Caribbean, is expected by the end of 2018.
The E-Litigation solution is a web-based/online application that will provide Court users and Stakeholders with access to assigned services anytime, anywhere and on any device including smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktops.
It will serve as the platform to increase operational efficiency in the Courts of the sub-region, directly resulting in a reduction of operational costs while improving efficiency. Importantly, the E-Judiciary solution will also contribute towards increasing the transparency of court services allowing the ECSC to improve access of its services to stakeholders on a macro level.
