Link Development, the global technology solutions provider and an A15 company, announced that, in collaboration with Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT) and Microsoft Egypt, it has delivered Egypt’s Ministry of Justice’s (MOJ) Economic Courts (EC), a fresh milestone of its Dynamics 365 based digital justice platform; another step towards providing quicker and more accessible justice to all.
Established in 2008, Egypt’s EC are specialised courts that focus on resolving economic and commercial disputes. Entrusted with serving citizens and safeguarding local and foreign investments in Egypt, the EC is the first judicial body to take a full digitalisation leap to boost the justice system’s performance and improve the county’s worldwide bank ranking.
Based on D365, Link Development has delivered a flagship digital justice platform with a powerful backend that automates and integrates end-to-end judiciary processes and services, including legal case filing, assignment, scheduling, distribution, transfers, management, and others.
Through an integrated online portal, citizens, lawyers, and legal case stakeholders can register, e-file new cases, follow up on cases’ progress, set appointments, receive judges’ decisions, make e-payments, and more.
