Attorneys and legal counsels must use electronic signatures when submitting documents.
Citizens can voluntarily choose electronic delivery of court documents instead of traditional mail.
Courts gain new tools for faster document exchange in international cases.
In cases of taking over or transferring judgments for execution abroad, the Minister of Justice may take over the conduct of the case.
Costs of transporting persons subject to extradition may be covered from public funds in important cases.
