Judicial electronic notifications: An overview to the regulation and use in some ibero-American countries

Abstract

Judicial notices serve the purpose of informing the parties of the decision the judge makes concerning a matter. Each country has specific rules that vary according to the decision that needs to be notified. Today, technology has simplified the judge's work by allowing notifications to be handled electronically. The present study seeks to analyze the situation of some Ibero-American countries regarding the use of technological resources to manage notifications in the judicial field. In the first part, the existing normative framework is briefly analyzed, and in the second, a comparison of the most outstanding elements of each country is made.
