STATUS
OF COMPUTERIZATION IN SUPREME COURT
The computerization in the Supreme Court of India
has so far been effected in seven areas. Accordingly, fresh cases
are filed before the computerized filing counter and filing receipts
are generated on computer. Notices are generated on computer.
Allocation of cases, bench wise, is done by the computer known
as the process of bunching and grouping of cases. Cause lists
are generated by the computer system. In addition, day to day
orders are available on the computer.
Administration of court is through computers.
Judgements of the Supreme Court are also available through internet.
It is planned that on the pattern of Singapore,
one court in the Supreme Court will be E-Court. All proceedings
in the proposed E-Court will be through floppies and computers.
There is a well used system of Interactive Voice
Response System (IVRS) at the Supreme Court through which litigants
and advocates can know the latest status of their cases apart
from fully computerized enquiry and facilitation centre.
