ABSTRACT

This research is an effort to shed light on the positive value of the amazing technical development that has organized humanity in various fields of life towards achieving, establishing and disseminating justice. And research as well; An attempt to emphasize the possibility of achieving and strengthening the philosophy of "technology for good," especially in the field of justice, in a way that contributes to its effective achievement, with strict adherence to established principles of judiciary and litigation. Through it, it is linked to technology. It is not a matter of control and control based on blind academic nervousness, arrogant professional tendencies, or isolated technical dominance. Rather, it is an integration and harmonization between them. For effective management and organization, it achieves better facilitation of access to justice and increases the efficiency and level of the judicial and judicial work system, with transparency. With speed, simplification, and security. All of that; in an advanced, integrated, and diverse work environment. To achieve the research endeavour, we first reviewed: Some aspects of rapid technical development from the first industrial revolution until the fourth industrial revolution, and even; and the features of the Fifth Industrial Revolution that seemed apparent. Then, in the first section, we presented the concept of electronic litigation and technical efforts in the era of the digital revolution. In the second section, we looked at the most important principles of judiciary and litigation, to talk about then: About the dialectical relationship and the possibility of control and harmonization between it and digital technology. The research reached several results and recommendations, most notably: the possibility of achieving a balance between the principles of justice and digital development, provided that some traditional concepts are reformulated and judicial legislation is modernized. With the use of the "robot judge" in a limited way, without prejudice to the role of the human judge.
