Drawing upon the findings of an empirical research project funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research during the Covid-19 outbreak, this article explores the long-term implications of remote justice in civil proceedings within the framework of the 2022 so-called “Cartabia Reform”. Starting with an analysis of the fundamental role of the Superior Council of the Magistracy in the administration of justice during the crisis, the paper then examines the role of soft rules (e.g., guidelines, protocols, and recommendations) in managing court activities during the emergency. Moreover, through data collected during interviews with judges and lawyers, the article assesses the practical effects of remote justice, providing new insights into the evolving trends of civil litigation. Finally, the paper examines the impact of remote justice on the foundational principles of immediacy, orality, and concentration, emphasizing the importance of balancing the advantages of efficiency and flexibility with the necessity to preserve the human dimension of civil proceedings.
Partendo dai risultati di una ricerca empirica finanziata dal Ministero dell’Università e della Ricerca durante la pandemia, l’articolo esplora gli effetti a lungo termine della “giustizia da remoto”, con particolare attenzione alle modifiche normative introdotte dalla riforma Cartabia del 2022. Dopo aver analizzato il ruolo cruciale del Consiglio Superiore della Magistratura nell’ambito dell’amministrazione della giustizia durante la crisi da Covid-19, l’articolo approfondisce l’importanza del “soft law” (linee guida, protocolli e raccomandazioni) nel regolare il processo civile in situazioni di emergenza. Attraverso interviste a giudici e avvocati, si esamina poi l’impatto reale del “processo a distanza”, offrendo nuovi spunti di riflessione in chiave evolutiva. Infine, l’articolo esamina l’impatto della giustizia da remoto sui principi fondamentali di immediatezza, oralità e concentrazione, sottolineando l’importanza di bilanciare i vantaggi dell’efficienza e della flessibilità (dati dagli strumenti dell’udienza online e della trattazione scritta) con la necessità di preservare la dimensione umana processo.

Abstract
Drawing upon the findings of an empirical research project funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research during the Covid-19 outbreak, this article explores the long-term implications of remote justice in civil proceedings within the framework of the 2022 so-called “Cartabia Reform”. Starting with an analysis of the fundamental role of the Superior Council of the Magistracy in the administration of justice during the crisis, the paper then examines the role of soft rules (e.g., guidelines, protocols, and recommendations) in managing court activities during the emergency. Moreover, through data collected during interviews with judges and lawyers, the article assesses the practical effects of remote justice, providing new insights into the evolving trends of civil litigation. Finally, the paper examines the impact of remote justice on the foundational principles of immediacy, orality, and concentration, emphasizing the importance of balancing the advantages of efficiency and flexibility with the necessity to preserve the human dimension of civil proceedings.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
