<![CDATA[The rapid advancement of information and communication technology has significantly transformed judicial systems across many countries. The integration of digital technology into judicial administration has become essential to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, transparency, and accessibility of legal services. Indonesia, which follows the civil law tradition, and the United States, which adopts the common law system, demonstrate different approaches to incorporating digital innovation within their respective judicial frameworks. This study examines and compares the legal systems of both countries in supporting the implementation of fundamental judicial principles in the digital era, including the principles of simple, prompt, and affordable justice, judicial transparency, judicial independence, and equal access to justice. The research employs a normative legal method using statutory and comparative law approaches. The analysis reveals that Indonesia has continuously strengthened judicial digitalization through the implementation of the e-Court and e-Litigation systems administered by the Supreme Court. In contrast, the United States introduced judicial digitalization at an earlier stage through the Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) and Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) platforms. Despite the differences between their legal traditions, both countries demonstrate that digital technology can effectively reinforce the realization of modern judicial principles. However, several issues, including cybersecurity, unequal technological infrastructure, and the protection of litigants' rights, remain significant challenges. Accordingly, continuous improvement of digital governance, legal regulations, and technological infrastructure is necessary to establish a fair, effective, and sustainable judicial system in the digital age.]]>
