Necessity of Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) in Family Matters and Legal Implementation of Online Court System

Technology is transforming Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). Defying long-held assumptions that developing empathy, broadening understanding, and coming up with solutions are only possible in person, effective approaches for assisting in the resolution of the growing number of arguments that have developed online have emerged. Technology has become the "fourth party" in settling disputes, thanks to the developing field of Online Dispute Resolution (ODR), which includes the use of technology and computer-mediated communication (CMC) in negotiation, mediation, arbitration, and other dispute resolution processes. ODR is being used by courts in numerous countries for family-related matters. The expectations and duties that are placed on the ODR community and its practitioners are examined in this research, which uses a qualitative technique. In particular, the study emphasizes the importance of ODR in resolving family disputes, critical moral standards for the technology used in ODR, and critical moral standards for the technology used in ODR, and makes suggestions for how Pakistan's judiciary can enhance its current online court model to facilitate greater access to justice and speed up the entire adjudication process. The paper also offers ideas on how the judicial system might continue to disseminate information with integrity, quality, and promptness.
