How virtual digital pleading works
- 1
Confirm you are a party to the lawsuit
The service is for litigants in a case. The plaintiff can access the system to record statements and requests, and the defendant can respond to those requests. If you are represented, your lawyer works within the same virtual environment.

Access the platform
Enter the system to record your statements and requests in the lawsuit. The platform gives litigants and lawyers a virtual environment for fast, efficient, transparent and advanced justice.
- 3
Present your defences, arguments and evidence
Pleading is a back-and-forth exchange between the two parties. You put forward your defences, arguments, evidence and requests using memoranda, documents, previous judicial rulings and evidence. The other side responds in turn.

Plead under the judge's supervision
The conversation happens directly, with the defendant responding under the supervision of the competent judge or case manager. Your statements are recorded and documented as the exchange unfolds.
- 5
Everything is documented for the record
Statements are recorded and documented in the digital pleading minutes and the digital case record, so there is a clear written trail of the proceedings.

Add new evidence whenever you need to
You can access the service and view the digital pleading minutes via smart phones or the website round the clock, so the parties can add any new evidence or document when they want.
