Abstract
The institutionalization of technologies in the Malaysian judicial setting is conducted through e-Court application since 2009, in line with the government inspiration of Vision 2020. The Case Management System, Electronic Filing System and video recording system are employed to decrease “backlog” of cases & accelerate existing cases of administration, which give a facelift to Malaysian judiciary reputation. However, the system is not implemented properly because e-courd applications do not proceed according to a system to reduce disaster preparedness. The main objective of the current study is to formulate a “sustainable risk management framework” for e-court records three layers. The first layer keeps records of management risks & life cycle as well as risk management procedure. The second layer fulfils four legal requirements, i.e., ISO, legislation, national and organization policy rely upon sustainability, backup process, and risk administration. And third layer, the jurisdiction-specific e-court risk administration system, straightens the risk of noncompliance resulting in damaging consequences. Numerous E-court “related conceptions” are addressed e.g., modify administration and ICT infrastructure. The proposed sustainable risk management framework for electronic court records management is proposed to be tested in other jurisdictions and other settings because it relates to overall risk countrywide and global stage.
