The Judiciary has deployed technology to continue dispensing justice in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
To ensure the wheels of justice do not grind to a halt, courts are allowing the filing of cases electronically in a method referred to as Electronic Case Management and the hearing of parties through video links, thus restricting human contact to curb the spread of the disease.
Only matters certified urgent are being heard virtually through Skype and Zoom and orders sent to the applicants via email.

The registrar looks at the case and decides if it is urgent or not.
If urgent, the matter is sent to the judge, who hears it and makes an order ex parte, or if there is a need for an inter partes hearing, the judge gives a date to appear via Zoom or Skype.
