Advocates, including senior law practitioners, should adapt to new technologies like online filing of court cases rather than opposing such digital advancements, said Justice R. Subramanian, Judge, Madras High Court, on Friday.

Delivering his inaugural address at the District and Sessions court in Ranipet, Justice Subramanian said that digital filing of cases makes routine work much easier and quicker. For example, in the early 2000s, advocates could not run their offices without stenographers as a large volume of documents had to be typed for court proceedings. Most of the advocate chambers in the Madras High Court then had at least one stenographer in their office. “Technology has made work simpler and easier. They help us do the work more accurately. As a practice, advocates should allot at least one hour in a day for e-filing of cases and follow-up to it,” he said.
