PCTWhy & How
The Aim of the PCT1) To register in an easier ed faster way every pleading and document made by attorneys and judges during the litigation
2) To avoid attorneys to go to the Courthouse all around the country to register any pleading or document
The Tools of the PCT1) A particular kind of e-mail: a certified e-mail (that certified the sending and the reception)
2) A particular kind of digital signature, linked with a single attorney
3) The certification of every attorney by the Ministry of Justice
