The Supreme Court on Monday asked lawyers to be internet savvy to help smoothen the processing of petitions for quick hearing, particularly in commercial matters. The apex court said the use of e-mails by advocates and the apex court registry during the course of pendency of matters would help in reducing the arrears as the delay in judicial proceedings are due to late servicing of the documents to the contesting parties. A Bench headed by Chief Justice S H Kapadia, while directing the apex court registry to send additional notes and other documents through e-mail said that fifty per cent of the pendency is on account of delay in service. The court gave its suggestion in the presence of Attorney General G E Vahanvati who welcomed it and made a statement that the Cabinet Secretary will provide the e-mail IDs of all the government departments along with the names of the nodal officers to the apex court registry within two weeks.
