Digitalization of the Judicial System of the Republic of Kazakhstan as a Factor in Ensuring Access to Justice and Human Rights Protection Background: The key problem in implementing digital technologies into the judicial system is the need to balance technological progress with the preservation of the constitutional principles of justice. Despite significant success, risks of digital inequality, fragmented legal regulation, and ensuring the cybersecurity of participants' personal data remain. Objective: The aim of the article is a comprehensive analysis of the impact of digitalization (e-justice) on the accessibility of judicial protection in Kazakhstan, identifying current challenges, and developing recommendations for improving the regulatory framework in the context of the 2025– 2026 reforms. Methods: The study employs systemic, comparative-legal, and predictive methods, as well as an analysis of existing digital platforms ("Court Cabinet," AI analytics) and new legislative acts, including the Digital Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Results and Implications: The analysis established that digitalization has significantly expanded access to justice for residents of remote regions and persons with disabilities, and has increased the transparency of the system through automated case distribution and the implementation of AI for undisputed claims. It is proved that by 2026, the formation of a full-fledged e-justice ecosystem requires the adoption of a unified law or the codification of norms on digital processes to strengthen human rights guarantees in the digital environment.
