The online Civil Resolution Tribunal (CRT) in British Columbia (Canada) assists individuals in resolving specific disputes without the need for legal representation. It provides an accessible and efficient way to handle various types of claims. Examples of claims include claims about intimate images shared without people's consent, motor vehicle accidents (and linked entitlement to benefits) and small claims (up to $5k). The CRT process involves four main stages: applying or responding to a claim using the free Solution Explorer, engaging in negotiation through a secure platform to attempt settlement, moving to facilitation with a CRT case manager if negotiation fails, and ultimately receiving a final decision from an independent tribunal member if no agreement is reached, with the option to settle at any stage.

Global Toolkit on AI and the Rule of Law for the Judiciary
AustLII's Datalex is a tool designed to help transform legislation into code, making legal rules easier to understand and apply through an AI-driven system. The key component of Datalex is its use of the yscript language, which allows legal texts to be converted into code that can be run interactively. This process supports automated legal consultations by generating conclusions or reports based on user-provided facts, making the law more accessible. Additionally, the ylegis pre-processor converts text from legislation into yscript, enabling developers to create applications that translate legal frameworks into actionable digital formats. Through the DataLex development tools, users can import legal documents, edit them into yscript code, and then run consultations to test the code’s functionality. This system is particularly useful for developing "rules as code" applications, where legal language is translated into a form that computers can process to assist with legal decision-making or guidance.

The Hessian judiciary uses digital dictation and speech recognition systems to enhance efficiency. Since 2005, "Dragon Naturally Speaking Legal Group" and "voice4legal" have enabled legal professionals to dictate documents digitally, replacing old analog methods. The system includes specialized legal vocabulary and workflow management, streamlining dictation, correction, and final document processing. The system has become widely adopted across Hessian justice departments, supporting both in-office and remote work. Key upgrades have improved accuracy and reduced the need for constant language profile maintenance.
