Description
Summary:Blockchain, artificial intelligence, and other technologies have been increasingly integrated with the law, and the construction of smart justice and Internet courts in various places has a prominent effect on court informatization. The Supreme People’s Court is currently carrying out the pilot reform of separation between complicated and simple cases in civil procedure, and legal technology will inevitably become a major means to enable the reform. In the field of electronic litigation, legal technology itself has become a goal of the reform. Regarding the trials of pilot basic courts, legal technology has been more deeply applied in many links such as trial activities and trial management, playing an essential role in improving judicial efficiency, and becoming an important way to solve judicial dilemmas such as “litigation explosion.” However, the history of modern society reminds us that we should be reasonably optimistic about the development of technology, especially in the field of justice.
