e-Working Project now live in the Commercial Court
08.07.2010


The eWorking project is now live in the Commercial Court, Technology & Construction Court and Chancery Division. Court users are filing Part 7 and Part 8 claims, and subsequent documentation, in increasing numbers. Within the TCC and Commercial Court we have introduced a scanning capability; this allows documents filed on paper to be turned into electronic files, enabling the judges and court staff to take the case forward using a fully electronic case file and generating subsequent use of on-line filing and submission of electronic documents. Since the launch of e-working in the Commercial Court in April 2009 there have been some significant refinements based on feedback from court users, judges and court staff as they use the system on real, and often complex, cases. A User Group of solicitors’ clerks, chaired by Mrs Justice Gloster, meets regularly to channel feedback on the content and ease of use of forms which is helping to make the whole system robust and increase user confidence. The project is now entering its final stages of development with Payment On Line, Case Reader and Bankruptcy & Companies applications nearing release.
