Keywords: electronic litigation, useful properties, adoption of experience, effective means, international experience

Abstract

The main directions of further development of e-justice are identified and analysed. Particular attention is paid to the current situation in this area in developed and democratic countries. Considering practical experience in the implementation of e-justice, possible ways of implementing progressive forms and methods of e-justice emerged. At present, the development of the judicial system has undergone significant and, first, positive changes in the direction of conducting proceedings in electronic mode. That is, it is commonly spoken of the so-called «electronic litigation», in one way or another it exists in most countries. It is concluded that, even though the international community has implemented measures in which electronic judicial procedures must be carried out, their applicability has been problematic in Ukraine, which has affected the judicial system. Processes related to the administration of justice are one of the key elements of the functioning of society. After all, they are meeting the constantly existing demand for justice on the part of citizens, and this demand is one of the basic human needs.
