Digital Transformation in the Algerian Administrative Justice System
Open accessAbstract
The article aims to examine the evolution of judicial services within the administrative judiciary in Algeria and their shift towards digital transformation. This is achieved by exploring mechanisms for activating digital transformation at the stages of case registration, investigation, and judgment. These mechanisms are considered a guarantee of the right to litigation and an improvement of services. However, the adoption of technology in administrative courts poses legislative and material challenges, which are discussed in the second part of the article, emphasizing the adaptation of the administrative judge to this transformation.

TL;DR
The article analyzes Algeria’s administrative justice digital transformation across filing, investigation, and trial, arguing that reforms remain limited and largely optional. It identifies material, human, and legislative obstacles and recommends operationalizing e-filing, electronic payment, remote hearings, and digital training.
Key findings
- Algeria first introduced electronic filing for administrative lawsuits in the 2022 procedural amendment under Article 815, but paper filing remains and electronic submission is only an optional alternative; the legislature did not designate an electronic portal for filing.
- The 2022 amendments permit service of investigative measures through all legally recognized means, including electronic methods, and termination orders are now notified electronically via SMS; however, electronic service is not mandatory for orders postponing termination before interim relief judges because the provision uses the permissive term “may.”
- Remote video conferencing was introduced by the 2015 Justice Modernization Law but is limited to criminal proceedings and is not applied before administrative courts, even during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Challenges include limited digital infrastructure, lack of specialized digital training among judges, high illiteracy in southern regions, delayed attorney e-registration, absence of electronic payment for judicial fees, and legislative texts less developed than criminal justice; six administrative appellate bodies exist nationwide, and the Algiers Administrative Court of Appeal experiences severe delays.
Methods
- Doctrinal and analytical legal study of digital transformation in Algeria’s administrative justice system, examining mechanisms at case registration, investigation, and judgment, with a second part on challenges and effects on administrative rulings.
- Sources include Algerian constitutional amendments from 1963 to 2020, the Civil and Administrative Procedure Code (notably Article 815, Article 886, and amended Article 931), the 2015 Justice Modernization Law, and comparative examples from France, China, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Germany, Canada, the EU, and Italy.
- No empirical sample or statistical analysis is reported; the analysis is qualitative, legal, and comparative.
Limitations
- The paper states that the topic has received limited scholarly attention and that most studies are descriptive rather than analytical; it does not include a formal limitations section.
- Evident from the text: no empirical data, sample, or systematic measurement of court practice is reported, so claims about implementation and efficiency rely on legal texts and illustrative examples.
- Evident: comparative examples are used selectively rather than as a systematic comparative methodology, and the recommendations are normative rather than tested.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Claims read by deepseek-v4.1-flash under definition version 3 (extract-v3) on 2026-10-19.
Classified by jev-1.13-20260917 (gold-guideline-v0.2) on 2026-10-19.
Cited sources are checked by gpt-6-sol.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
