The Cyprus School of Magistrates organised with great success the training seminar on the new Civil Procedure Rules for Legal Officers and Registrars on 22 June 2023 at the Supreme Court.

The aim of the seminar was for the participants to understand and become familiar with the purpose, the general framework, the basic provisions and the philosophy of the new Regulations. The trainers at the seminar were Ms Marina Papadopoulou, President of the District Court, Ms Georgia Petasi Korfioti, Senior District Judge and Ms Marina Eleftheriou, Senior Registrar.

The participants had the opportunity to take part in discussion and case studies, both in small groups and in plenary sessions, with the seminar trainers moderating the discussion.

The Director of the School of Magistrates, Mr. George Erotokritou, in his introductory speech, emphasized the new tools introduced by the new Regulations, which greatly assist the work of the Judge, and expressed his confidence that the participants will make every effort to contribute to the change of culture, not only among themselves but also among the rest of the staff of the courts, since it is they themselves who will "guide and inspire" them.

The Chief Procurator, Ms. Irini Christodoulou, also addressed the audience: " modernization is necessary to speed up the judicial process, so, we must continue to make leaps forward if we want to achieve the desired qualitative change in the judiciary and reduce the time of adjudication of cases."

The Training Programme on the new Civil Procedure Rules is part of the Judicial School's funding from the Recovery and Resilience Plan.
