Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 31940, member: 636"] The courts in Zimbabwe keep moving forward with their computer plans. Mr. Walter Chikwana from the JSC recently shared news about the fourth part of their digital court project. He talked about this at the opening of a brand new court building in Mutawatawa. The first three parts went really well with the bigger courts, like the Supreme Court and High Court. These fancy courts already run completely without paper. People must use computers or phones to send in their papers for these big courts. They can also join court meetings through video calls without leaving home, which makes life much easier for everyone. The rest of the world uses these computer systems, and Zimbabwe wants the same modern ways. Later this year, smaller local courts will start using computers just like the big courts do. Mutawatawa will be part of this big change. The JSC plans to bring these changes step by step, looking at each area of the country one after another. They hope to finish two parts of the country before June next year. Right before everything starts, court workers will learn all about the new computer system. The JSC will also talk to regular people everywhere to help them understand how everything works. This special computer system has a long name - Integrated Electronic Case Management System. Chief Justice Luke Malaba started the legal year last January with important words about working together. He believes courts need help from many different groups to work right. Police, lawyers, village leaders, and regular people all need to join hands with judges. The JSC keeps asking everyone for ideas on how to make the computer system work better. They know people will trust courts more if everyone helps build the system. The new Mutawatawa court building took three years to finish. Before this nice building existed, court business happened in tiny offices at the government center. Judges had to travel far from Murehwa just to handle cases in this area. That problem disappeared, thanks to the government spreading services to more places. The building shows how serious they are about bringing justice closer to people who live far from cities.
