Single Access Password to the Electronic Judicial Office. To access the Electronic Judicial Office, it will be necessary to have an individual or single user password, which will be the electronic identity that the citizen, party, procedural representative or intervening party will have for the performance of their procedures in the aforementioned computer system.

Creation of the single password. To create the single password, the parties to the proceeding shall present themselves at the user registration offices located in the secretary of each judicial office, where general information, electronic address, copy of the national identification document and current bar association membership card will be requested. Once the attorney registration form is completed, the respective message will be sent to their electronic address, for the purpose of confirming their data.

When, under other exceptional circumstances, at the discretion of the judge or court, its electronic presentation would not be possible.

Presentation and return of physical documents. Physical documents presented to the jurisdictional body for incorporation into SEJE shall be scanned by the judicial secretary. If legally appropriate, after their digitization, they shall be returned to the person who presented them. After the original of a digitized document is returned, the party and their procedural representative must custodize and preserve it until the conclusion of the process; they, under responsibility, must present it when required by the judge or court hearing the case. The altered presentation in part and/or in its entirety, or its non-presentation on the date indicated by the judge or court, shall result in the application of the measures provided for in the law governing the matter in question. The Judicial Secretary shall issue a certificate evidencing the delivery of the returned document, with all its characteristics and the designation of who is responsible for its custody.

Conformity with the digitization of documents. Should the presenting party consider that the digitized information is not consistent with the physical documentation presented, they may file observations with the corresponding jurisdictional body within three (3) days following its availability in the system, for purposes of correction.
