Abstract

The e-CODEX project is a EU co-funded Large Scale Project in the domain of e-Justice. It is funded through the ICT Policy Support Programme under the Competitiveness and Innovation Framework Programme. It involves 23 countries, mainly through their Ministries of Justice or their representatives, but also other institutions such as the Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe, Council of the Notariats of the European Union, the National Research Council of Italy (through its Institutes IRSIG and ITTIG) and OASIS. e-CODEX features in the Strategy on European e-Justice 2014 - 2018, which was endorsed by the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament. The e-CODEX Project aims to improve interoperability between legal authorities within the EU, with minimum impact on existing national ICT solutions. In this context transport of data and documents is a key element of the solution. Any functionality to be developed for a cross-border e-Justice service necessarily means transport of information from one country to another. The technology is being piloted in live use cases. Use cases are divided between civil justice and criminal justice.

Goals

L'obiettivo del progetto è quello di migliorare l'accesso trans-frontaliero dei cittadini e le imprese a strumenti legali in Europa, nonché di migliorare l'interoperabilità tra le autorità giudiziarie all'interno dell'UE.
