The judiciary, responding to societal demands for sound governance, aligns itself with the 2010–2035 Judicial Reform Blueprint, emphasizing the use of information technology for restructuring. E-Litigation emerges as a significant outcome of Indonesia's judicial reforms, supported by SK KMA RI Number 129/KMA/SK/VIII/2019 and PERMA 1 of 2019 as the legal basis. The implementation of e-Litigation is expected to adhere to the principles of good governance outlined in legal philosophy, particularly concerning the legitimacy of evidence in civil cases during e-Litigation. However, the legislative document, specifically PERMA 1/2019, lacks explicit technological guidelines, posing a challenge to the effective implementation of good governance. This research aims to scrutinize the concept of good governance, the legal foundation for e-Litigation, and the application of responsive, effective, and efficient principles in controlling the admissibility of documentary evidence in e-Litigation within civil cases. Utilizing a statutory method, the study employs a normative approach to law. The findings indicate that the current legal framework for the admissibility of evidence in civil e-Litigation cases hinders the fulfillment of responsive, effective, and efficient e-Litigation principles. Consequently, a modification to the legal framework governing the admissibility of evidence in civil e-Litigation is warranted to align with the principles of good governance.
