This thesis provides analysis of the development in the use of information and electronic communication technologies in Lithuanian civil process and the impact of the use of technologies on fundamental civil process principles. Due to interdisciplinary analysis, the use of technologies in the civil process is evaluated by both technological and legal normative aspects. Accordingly, the thesis reveals the benefit of the use of information technologies to the operative civil process and the main problems faced when modernizing the civil process as well as its possible solutions. The research of the development in the legal basis regulating the use of information technologies in the civil process also shows that normative legal basis cannot be created separately, on the contrary, it should be developed in harmonious relation with electronic remedies being introduced in the civil process. Following the comparative research of the best practices of foreign countries in electronization of civil processes and comparing it with the development of information technologies implemented in Lithuanian civil process, the thesis identifies the main areas of technological modernization in the Lithuanian civil process. The research of potential perspectives in the civil process electronization area includes not only information technologies that will be implemented in the near future but also the future possibilities to implement innovative artificial intelligence-based systems in the civil process. In the author‘s opinion, the prediction of these modern perspectives and the evaluation of related legal base provides the creation of the innovative civil process that could more easily accomplish its fundamental principles. |
