Abstract

All Brazilian courts already are using electronic process systems, but they are at different levels of digital governance. There are several experiences of using artificial intelligence, automation and management from BI dashboards and virtual offices. Currently, some courts are already experimenting virtual hearings in the metaverse. The objective of this lecture is to show the tools of electronic governance in Brazilian courts and analyze how they are being used to improve judicial management and judicial service for citizens, in terms of accessibility, accountability, quality and speed.
