Case Management System
Innovative online hearing connects participants remotely during times of social distancing
The Qatar International Court held its first fully remote hearing on 7 and 8 April, with judges, Court staff and lawyers all appearing from different locations across four different countries, ensuring that access to justice is maintained during the Coronavirus pandemic. The hearing was livestreamed to allow members of the public to observe proceedings.
The Court routinely employs state-of-the-art technology to ensure efficient and cost-effective access to justice. Since its launch in 2018, the eCourt system has offered users a paperless e-case management solution that covers the full Court process lifecycle – from case filing to issuance of a judgment.
