For a Malta courtroom, upgrading to digital technology has more considerations than simply moving with the times. The island nation has a rich deep-seated history spanning centuries so when evolving with the time becomes absolutely necessary, it’s important to stop and reflect on what that means. One could write an endless supply of novels over what has happened in Malta courtrooms; considering there has been one since the age of the Bible. Now all 27 halls of Malta courtrooms are looking to UK and US standards to find inspiration for their own upgrades. Judging from the results though, the momentary reflection has lead to some top-notch and extensive upgrades to the Malta courtroom; quotations of the work being done can only be speculated but it must’ve been quite expensive.
Halls have been upgraded with video conferencing facilities that any international law firm would be privileged to use. A hosting project has been launched that creates a transition from printed documents to electronic documents thereby lowering carbon footprint and heightening ease of access. Another perk of the Malta courtroom update news is that there is also free Wi-Fi capabilities available to all in the building. There is no doubt that the advancement of technology in the Malta courtrooms put it in line with spy movies. When the quotes for the Malta courtroom upgrades were issued, it could be imagine it was a message that would self destruct in ten seconds.
On a more serious note though, the benefit of these upgrades will mean that the country is better equipped to protect potential victims and that justice is not obstructed by inefficient processes. The digital system will replace the old cassette system which was the primary means of categorising evidence in cases which means quicker turnover of cases because they are not hampered by slow policy. The Malta courtrooms are now among the most advanced in the world and sure legal amendments to reflect this are due to follow soon. All those involved in running the Malta courtrooms have gone through the necessary personnel training and identification tags distributed.
Although it has been possible to access court rulings from an online resource for years, those systems have been upgraded to allow Malta courtrooms access to electronic case files further improving administration endeavours for all. This networking of the 27 courtrooms of Malta means that collaboration on cases is seamless and that there will be rarely a reason a lawyer will need to leave an office or branch in order to access relevant information for cases he is working on. This is a massive benefit for all involved and it’s amazing to think how far Malta courthouses have come from their millennia long history.
