#Supreme Court philippines

Last Thursday, June 19, 2025, the Supreme Court of the Philippines formally launched the eCourt Portal, an online platform aimed at modernizing court processes nationwide. Here's what can be done with the portal: eFiling - Online filing of cases and pleadings before the Supreme Court. By July 1, eFiling will be available to the public and starting October 1, 2025, eFiling will be mandatory for all Supreme Court cases except administrative and bar matters. You can check out the eCourt portal here: https://sc.judiciary.gov.ph/ecourt-ph/ In November 2024, the Supreme Court also announced it has started using AI software for preliminary legal research and voice-to-text transcription. The Supreme Court affirmed the dismissals of four telecommunication companies from third-generation mobile communications technology (3G) frequency bids. This resulted from the Supreme Court affirming two orders from the National Communications Commission (NTC) in December 2005 and August 2008. The Supreme Court added that the NTC has ‘full discretion to assess and evaluate applicants to these frequency spectrums’. Supreme Court of the Philippines has approved a new framework governing the use of artificial intelligence in the judiciary, setting rules to ensure human oversight and accountability.
