Recent developments in the judicial field |
||
|
First instance courts were regrouped (6 courts instead of 20), but court houses and court staff remained at places (more flexibility and equal workloads). A new case management system was set up. All the district courts have been equipped with videoconference equipment (mostly in use to connect prisons, but also foreign countries). All Estonian court houses have been covered with open wireless internet. New civil procedure entered into force (payment order for uncontested claims). In criminal, a new fast-track procedure for judgments delivered within 48 hours has been introduced. |
