Legal Drafting Process Will Be Conducted in the Ministry of Justice Using an Innovative Digital Platform

One of the winning projects in the grant competition of the Ministry of Justice "Innovative Legal Technologies" has been completed. The digital tool, which provides for the automation of the legal drafting process, is already functioning properly. The employees of the Ministry's Law Enforcement Department also underwent several stages of training for the use of the digital platform in the working process. Deputy Minister of Justice, Tornike Cheishvili presented to the authors of the project relevant certificates.

Creating drafts of legal acts using the Logos program of Legaltech simplifies the process related to legal drafting activity and makes it possible to transform text into a schematic image, as well as digital visualization of norms. It should be noted that the German Federal Ministry of Justice uses a similar program in law enforcement activities.

The authors of the project are President of Steinbeis University, Professor of Tbilisi State University, Giorgi Khubua, and the Associate Professor of Law Technologies of BTU, Lado Sirdadze. Emeritus Professor of Viadrina University, Honorary Professor of Vienna University, Stefan Breidenbach was also involved in the implementation of the program.

The Ministry of Justice annually announces a grant competition for strengthening civil involvement in the agency's activities. Last year, the Ministry funded best 17 projects.
