IMPLEMENTATION OF DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES IN COURT ACTIVITIES

Abstract

In the Republic of Uzbekistan, modernizing the judicial and legal system, enhancing access to justice, and ensuring transparency in judicial activities have been designated as key priorities within the framework of the “Digital Uzbekistan – 2030” Strategy. The implementation of digital technologies in the judicial system is significant not only from a technical standpoint but also from legal, organizational, and social perspectives. This process serves as a fundamental means of ensuring fair trials, reinforcing human rights guarantees, and making judicial proceedings more transparent and efficient. This article analyzes the theoretical and legal foundations, practical status of implementing digital technologies in court activities, including artificial intelligence (AI) tools, innovative mechanisms, and international experiences such as electronic court applications, remote participation in court sessions, and automatic generation of draft court documents. Additionally, the opinions of legal scholars in this field are examined through an analytical approach. Theoretical views are supplemented with examples from judicial practice. The primary objective of the article is to analyze the legal basis for introducing digital technologies in the judicial system, existing practical challenges and their solutions, and to formulate evidence-based recommendations aimed at improving the effectiveness of justice. This article encompasses the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of implementing digital technologies in the judicial system and offers scientific and practical recommendations that serve to enhance the quality of justice in Uzbekistan and ensure transparency and efficiency in court proceedings. As a result, the legal, organizational, and social aspects of the digital transformation process are addressed through a comprehensive approach, contributing scientifically to making court activities more effective and transparent.
