The Court of Justice of the European Union has launched ‘e-Curia’, an application allowing procedural documents to be lodged and accepted by electronic means. e-Curia is a new service that is free of charge and intended for the representatives of parties before the three courts constituting the Court of Justice of the European Union (Court of justice, General court, Civil service tribunal). All procedural documents can now be exchanged electronically with the court registries by means of this secure application. Lawyers and agents of the Member States and of the European Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies who use e-Curia will no longer have to send paper copies of procedural documents and will be exempt from having to produce certified copies of those documents. The functionalities of e-Curia are the filing of procedural documents, the service of procedural documents and consulting procedural documents. Persons interested in using e-Curia must request the creation of an account by means of anapplication form: http://curia.europa.eu/e-Curia [2].
