Integrated Case Management System (ICMS)

The implementation of the Integrated Case Management System (ICMS) simplified the administrative procedures in judicial trials and contributed to increasing the transparency of all court trials.

The implementation of automated systems in courts is an important step in the process of court modernization. These systems help both court workers and citizens, thus contributing to streamlining court work and improving the quality of justice.
