Lawyers Split on Remote Crime Litigation Fees
The Egyptian Ministry of Justice intends to implement a remote criminal litigation system starting October 1, 2026. This will be accompanied by the launch of an electronic platform offering services such as attending criminal sessions, renewing detention, and accessing case files online. The ministry has imposed fees for using the platform, including a 500-pound annual registration fee and 500 pounds per remote session, which has sparked debate over the financial burden on lawyers and litigants. Some experts view these fees as an additional financial burden, while others confirm that the service facilitates procedures and reduces costs in exchange for the nominal fees. Legal experts emphasized the importance of making the service optional, especially in criminal cases that require direct communication. Judges and lawyers have been trained to use the platform, and discussions are ongoing regarding its effectiveness and suitability for criminal cases.
