Changes to the electronic processing of court cases

Ministerial Order no. 267/2018 was published in the official gazette Diário da República on 20 September and it makes changes to the electronic processing of cases in judicial courts, and in administrative and tax courts (Citius/Sitaf).
The publication of this Ministerial Order represents great, substantive progress in bringing citizens closer to justice. There are a number of innovations which, hand in hand with technology, open up the doors to bring citizens closer to the Portuguese courts, by introducing greater openness and transparency in access to judicial proceedings (for not only citizens, but also lawyers and all other judicial entities).
