Abstract

Electronic trial (e-trial) is currently regarded as one of the most important steps adopted by countries. The Jordanian legislator has issued many laws and legislations that incarnate and reinforce this approach. The present study endeavored to explain the concept of e-trialand the extent of its compatibility with the constitutional principles that guarantee the rights of defenseto present evidentiary requirements whether those connected to granting litigants the right to provide evidence that helps prove or refute this right, as well as enshrine the principle of publicity, which allows anyone to view the course of the trial. As a result, the Jordanian legislator was keen to provide the requirements of e-trial due to its distinctive features that make it an urgent necessity, especially since the ultimate objective of the electronic judiciary (e-judiciary)does not differ from the traditional court, which aims to grant everyone his due.
