Internet the key to improving justice system

Taking advantage of the Internet to tackle cases and dealing with judicial affairs has been strongly approved by China's legal industry, Web and law specialists said on Sunday. As the Internet provides convenience for residents, it brings many changes for the legal industry, including courts, prosecuting authorities and law firms, said Su Zelin, deputy director of the Commission for Legislative Affairs of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. "The fast developments in the network make several related industries booming, such as e-commerce, Internet finance and cybersecurity, but how to use laws or new-style legal ideas to handle new problems in the fields has been a big challenge for judicial insiders," said Su. Wang Lansheng, deputy director of information office under the Supreme People's Court, agreed, saying that making use of the network and big data to manage court affairs is also becoming more important for Chinese courts.
