This may be the distance to the court building or some organizational and technical solutions related to the development of new information and communication technologies (ICT) and the access of potential "clients" to justice information via the website. This is a more important topic that in recent years, the Ministry of Justice has seen a significant increase in the expenditure on computerization of the judiciary. The actions taken were aimed both at facilitating work and supporting judges and court staff as well as facilitating communication between courts and clients. However, as is clear from the analysis of international statistical data, Poland, in spite of its considerable expenditure on computerization of justice, was among the ten European Union countries with the lowest ICT access rates in the courts. The weakest link is the use of information technology in the field of communication between the court and the clients.The article consists of two parts. The first part discusses the standards of conducting websites by the judicial authorities. The second part presents methodology and results of own empirical analyzes.
