Judicial Branch's electronic services restored, according to CSJ

Paraguay's Supreme Court of Justice (CSJ) reported on Tuesday afternoon that its electronic services have been fully restored. The court's data center is now operational, allowing for the resumption of electronic submissions through the usual channels.

The temporary shutdown occurred earlier in the day, with the CSJ implementing a system-wide halt to facilitate necessary technical work. The court stated that the data center's operational status was restored after addressing inconveniences related to the air conditioning system. This measure was taken to safeguard the Judicial Branch's technological infrastructure, concluding the contingency period.

During the suspension of electronic services, individuals needing to file documents were required to do so in paper format, adhering to existing regulations. The CSJ's communication director, Luis Giménez, had previously dismissed rumors of a hacking incident, confirming the issue was technical.

The restoration of services means that legal processes can now proceed through electronic means, easing the administrative burden that arose from the paper-based filing requirement. The court assured that all systems are functioning normally.
