Abstract

The overall objective of the project is to set the basis for European co-operation in developing and sharing good Caseflow management (CFM) practices. The goal is to find methods and practices were expertise across countries in different professional fields can be utilized for judicial cooperation in caseflow management. Specific attention will also be paid to the role and competencies of technical experts in assisting judges in CFM. The project will create a systematic collection of CFM tools, methods and practices to be included in a "European Caseflow Management handbook".
The handbook will be also used to develop a permanent platform (Caseflow Management improvement platform) for exchanging good CFM practices at the European level. The aim of this web-based platform is to be a starting point for a wider CFM co-operation network in Europe by fostering, cultivating and developing the connections and relationships among the target group members.
The methodological approach is to collect good CFM practices from different European countries through workshops, interviews, on-field research and literature reviews, and to report them in an easily applicable manner
