The use of digital technologies is crucial to create an optimized service delivery system. In African countries, attention is increasingly paid to the automation and digitalization of judicial activities, due to concerns about the risks of influencing justice systems. In light of this, the article is aimed at forming a promising model for the introduction and implementation of digitalization in Zimbabwe courts.</p></sec><sec><title>Methods</title><p>Methods: the research is based on the methods of scientific analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction, legal modeling, formal legal and comparative legal methods.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results: the article provides an overview of the measures taken to digitalize the system of administration of justice in various states. It also examines best practices and reveals the essence of digitalization in the judicial system in Zimbabwe. The authors identify the main existing and promising directions of the impact of digitalization on the judicial system of Zimbabwe and show the ways to promptly and effectively convert the system of justice administration into a digital format. The article identifies the advantages of digital data processing in judicial bodies and obstacles to the use of digital systems in the administration of justice. The latter result in the insufficient optimality of the Integrated Electronic Case Management System (IECMS).</p></sec><sec><title>Scientific novelty</title><p>Scientific novelty: the study builds an optimal model for the introduction of digital technologies into the judicial system in Zimbabwe, aimed at improving the efficiency of courts digitalization and transforming the justice administration system. The authors proved that the crucial factors of achieving this goal are the auxiliary infrastructure of information and communication technologies, the level of education and awareness of citizens, and the ongoing state and legal policy.</p></sec><sec><title>Practical significance</title><p>Practical significance: it is expected that the proposed model to implement digitalization in Zimbabwe courts and improve its efficiency will allow for the comprehensive and uninterrupted implementation of IECMS.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><sec><title>Цель</title><p>Цель: в настоящее время в глобальном масштабе идет интенсивное обсуждение цифровизации и автоматизации предоставления услуг в государственных учреждениях, соответствующей технологическому масштабу Четвертой промышленной революции. Применение цифровых технологий имеет решающее значение для создания оптимизированной системы предоставления услуг. В африканских странах все больше внимания уделяется вопросам автоматизации и цифровизации судебной деятельности, что обусловлено опасениями по поводу рисков влияния на системы отправления правосудия. В свете этого целью данной статьи стало формирование перспективной модели внедрения и реализации процесса цифровизации в судах Зимбабве.</p></sec><sec><title>Методы</title><p>Методы: исследование базируется на методах научного анализа и синтеза, дедукции и индукции, правового моделирования, формально-юридическом и сравнительно-правовом методах.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты: в статье представлен обзор принятых мер по цифровизации системы отправления правосудия в различных государствах, исследован передовой опыт. Выявлена сущность цифровизации судебной системы в Зимбабве, определены основные существующие и перспективные направления влияния цифровизации на судебную систему Зимбабве, показаны способы оперативного и эффективного перевода системы отправления правосудия в цифровой формат. Установлены преимущества цифровой обработки данных в судебных органах и выявлены препятствия на пути использования цифровых систем при отправлении правосудия, вследствие чего сохраняется недостаточная оптимальность Интегрированной электронной системы ведения дел (Integrated Electronic Case Management System, IECMS).</p></sec><sec><title>Научная новизна</title><p>Научная новизна: в исследовании выстраивается оптимальная модель внедрения цифровых технологий в систему судопроизводства в Зимбабве, направленная на повышение эффективности цифровизации судов и преобразование системы отправления правосудия. Обосновывается, что для достижения этой цели решающее значение имеют вспомогательная инфраструктура информационно-коммуникационных технологий, уровень образования и осведомленности граждан, а также проводимая государственно-правовая политика.</p></sec><sec><title>Практическая значимость</title><p>Практическая значимость: ожидается, что предложенная в работе модель внедрения и повышения эффективности цифровизации судов Зимбабве позволит осуществить комплексное и бесперебойное внедрение IECMS.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>автоматизация</kwd><kwd>отправление правосудия</kwd><kwd>право</kwd><kwd>суд</kwd><kwd>судебная система</kwd><kwd>судопроизводство</kwd><kwd>цифровые технологии</kwd><kwd>электронное правительство</kwd><kwd>электронное правосудие</kwd><kwd>электронный документооборот</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>administration of justice</kwd><kwd>automation</kwd><kwd>court</kwd><kwd>digital documentation</kwd><kwd>digital government</kwd><kwd>digital justice</kwd><kwd>digital technologies</kwd><kwd>judicial proceedings</kwd><kwd>judicial system</kwd><kwd>law</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Aaltonen, I., &amp; Tammela, K.
