Sharia lawsuits to be filed online

TDT | Manama

Court of Cassation president and Supreme Judicial Council deputy president Chancellor Abdulla bin Hassan Al Buainin announced yesterday the inauguration of an online legal filing service of all Sharia lawsuits, as part of the digital transformation initiatives launched by the judicial sector.

Chancellor Al Buainin praised the constant support of Her Royal Highness Princess Sabeeka bint Ibrahim Al Khalifa, Wife of His Majesty the King and Supreme Council for Women (SCW) president, to initiatives aimed at enhancing the judicial and justice system related to the family.

This, he said, paves the way for attaining major achievements at the level of legal services delivered to the family, in accordance with the goals of the comprehensive development march spearheaded by His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.

Justice, Islamic Affairs and Endowments Minister Shaikh Khalid bin Ali Al Khalifa said that the new service will increase the efficiency of the judicial and justice services delivered to Bahraini women, as well as facilitate procedures for lawyers and litigants.

Shaikh Khalid extended his sincere thanks to the Information and e-Government Authority (iGA) for its constant support for carrying judicial digital transformation.

Chancellor Al Buainin stated that the new service will pave the way for completing all litigation stages electronically, including the issuance of verdicts while ensuring all legal guarantees are in force in the Kingdom.

iGA chief executive officer Mohammed Ali Al Qaed affirmed that the launch of the new service is an example of the successful joint efforts to develop Bahrain’s judicial system, in line with the leaders’ vision in this regard.
