IMPLEMENTATION AND INTERACTION FEATURES OF UJITS MODULES

Abstract

The article discusses the implementation and interaction features of the Unified Judi-cial Information and Telecommunication System modules (UJITS) in Ukraine. The regula-tory and legal regulation of the functioning of individual components of UJITS is analyzed, problematic aspects are highlighted, and directions for their solution are outlined. The norms of the Regulation on the Functioning Procedure of Separate Subsystems (Modules) of the Unified Judicial Information and Telecommunication System have been studied. The new features of the "Electronic Cabinet" subsystem are characterized from the standpoint of mandatory registration in the "Electronic Cabinet" for certain categories of participants in the judicial process. The author draws attention to exceptions to this rule. The key problems of insufficient use of the "Electronic Court" subsystem are outlined, par-ticularly the technical unpreparedness of the system and employees, a lack of staff, and the need for an audit.. The features of the electronic document management subsystem, which is critically important for ensuring the efficiency of justice, are analyzed. The need to strengthen re-sponsibility for incorrect operation and interference with this system is substantiated. The article considered the issues of ensuring openness and transparency of legal pro-ceedings (Unified State Register of Court Decisions, web portal "Judiciary of Ukraine"), pro-tection of information with limited access, and updating the information and communica-tion infrastructure of courts. The author outlined the key prospects for UJITS development. In particular, the pro-spects include regulating the module on the automated interaction with other automated systems of justice system institutions, law enforcement agencies, the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, other central and local executive bodies, and integrating Legal Tech into the judi-cial system.
