In a move set to revolutionize the delivery of justice in Kenya, the Judiciary has officially launched the E-Judiciary Mobile App, a digital platform designed to streamline court services and improve transparency in the legal system.
The mobile application will allow users—ranging from litigants and lawyers to the general public—to access court documents, track the progress of their cases, and receive real-time notifications on judicial matters.
With courts often criticized for delays and lack of information flow, the app is being hailed as a game changer in bridging the accessibility gap.
Chief Justice Martha Koome lauded the innovation as part of the Judiciary’s broader digital transformation strategy.
“This is not just about technology—it’s about empowering citizens with timely access to justice,” she said during the app’s launch.
The E-Judiciary App integrates with the Case Tracking System (CTS) and the Judiciary’s electronic filing (e-filing) portal, providing seamless user experience while reducing physical paperwork and manual case follow-ups.
It is currently available for Android users, with an iOS version set to be released soon.
Legal practitioners and civil society groups have welcomed the development, noting that digitization will cut down corruption loopholes, administrative costs, and inefficiencies that have long plagued Kenya’s court system.
With the app’s rollout, Kenya joins a growing number of countries investing in e-justice platforms to enhance judicial accountability and service delivery in the digital age.
