However, pursuant to the
introduction and recognition of electronic filing in the amended Evidence Act,
times indeed changed for many Lawyers and litigants alike. According to the Evidence Act, a procedure for

updating our evidence laws must be a continuous one. During the NBA Annual

show light on some of its ramifications.
