Subject: Round table on judicial reform 14 June 2013
Dear Mrs Lipstok,
Thank you very much for your response.
(1) Regarding the size of the delegation: We would like to invite a
delegation of the Supreme Court of Estonia consisting of up to 5 members
(judges and (or) court officials with experience in court
administration who could also take part in the discussions). We would
appreciate if you could let us know the names and positions of the
members of your delegation at your earliest convenience.
(2) The working language: we would like to propose using Russian
(which, we think, would be acceptable to all members of the delegations:
Estonian, Latvian, Bulgarian, and Lithuanian).
(3) Regarding the presentation: We suggest an informal roundtable
discussion; thus, there is no need to prepare a formal presentation.
(4) Regarding the topic: We believe that all the mentioned aspects
(changes in court administration, i. e. management, financing, training,
human recourse development, judges self-government system, etc. as well
as changes in legislation regarding court procedures in the respective
countries, i. e. court fees, length of proceedings, etc.) would be of
utmost interest for the participants of a roundtable discussion. We
would most welcome members of your delegation sharing the experience and
best practices of your country regarding court administration as well as
outlining changes in the legislation on court procedure. In particular,
we would like to hear about the Estonian experience regarding the merger
of local courts.
Please let me know if you have any other questions regarding the
upcoming meeting.
We are looking forward to welcoming a delegation of the Supreme Court of
Estonia to Lithuania.
Sincerely,
Danguolë Klimkevièiûtë
Adviser to the President
of the Supreme Court of Lithuania

Importance: High
Dear colleagues
On behalf of the Estonian Chief Justice Märt Rask, I would like
to thank President Kryzevicius for inviting the delegation of the
Estonian Supreme Court to the round table on judicial reform on 14 June.
However, we would like to know a little bit more about the topic and
focus of this gathering. Namely,
1. Would you please define judicial reform will we
discuss changes in courts administration (management, financing,
training, human recourse development, judges self management system
etc) or changes in legislation regarding courts procedures in our
respective countries (court fees, time of proceedings etc)?
2. Does every delegation has to prepare a presentation and
on which aspects it should focus?
3. What are the working languages of the round table?
4. Do you limit the size of the delegation, are the
participants only judges or could the court officials with their area of
expertise in courts administration also take part in the discussions?
Thank you in advance for the information!
Kind regards
Mari-Liis Lipstok
