The Judiciary has launched a new system to manage all financial transactions in a move aimed at improving efficiency in processing and managing the payment of court fees, deposits, refunds and administrative functions.

Judiciary Chief Registrar Winfridah Boyani Mokaya  in a press statement said the transition to the new platform is complete and the refund process which had been suspended has resumed

The transition is said to be fully integrated with the e-filing and case management systems.

With the new platform in place, payment receipts are to be  accessible via SMS acknowledgement in addition to the e-filing and CTS platforms.

The registrar said depositors will be required to update their bank details through a link sent to their mobile phone when a refund is being processed.

“We are working diligently to ensure that all outstanding refunds, forfeitures, and utilisation are completed as swiftly as possible,” Mokaya said.

The judiciary has apologised to all the stakeholders for the inconvenience caused as a result of the launch.

The judiciary urged stakeholders to contact the department through the email address: [email protected] or [email protected] for enquiries.
