In Online Courts and the Future of Justice, Richard Susskind, the world’s most pointed out author on the future of legal services, shows how litigation will be changed by technology and proposes a solution to the global access-to-justice problem. In many innovative legal systems, the resolution of civil disagreements takes too long, costs too much, and the procedure is not just old; it is muddled to regular mortals. The courts of some jurisdictions are labouring under shocking stockpiles – 100 million cases in Brazil, 30 million in India. More individuals worldwide now have internet access than access to justice. Making use of almost 40 years in the fields of legal technology and jurisprudence, Susskind shows how we can use the remarkable reach of the internet (majority of humanity is now online) to assist individuals understand and impose their legal rights. Online courts offer ‘online judging’ – the decision of cases by human judges however not in physical courtrooms. Instead, proof and arguments are submitted through online platforms through which judges likewise deliver their choices. Online courts likewise utilize technology to allow courts to deliver more than judicial choices. These ‘extended courts’ provide tools to assist users understand relevant law and available alternatives, and to create arguments and put together evidence. They use non-judicial settlements such as settlement and early neutral evaluation, not as an alternative to the general public court system however as part of it. A leader of online courts, Susskind preserves that they will displace much traditional litigation. He rigorously examines the benefits and disadvantages, and looks ahead, anticipating how AI, artificial intelligence, and virtual truth will likely concern control court service.
