The Judiciary has linked a technical disruption affecting its digital infrastructure to a suspected external interference after access to digitised services including electronic filing of cases remained limited on Monday.

According to the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary, Winfridah Mokaya, the downtimes were first reported on Thursday, July 10, and have been persistent ever since. "Beginning July 10, 2025, the Judiciary's public facing platforms including the eFiling system and Cause List portal, experienced intermittent access issues due to some external interference that temporarily disrupted network services," Mokaya said in a statement. "Our technical team responded swiftly and initiated a service resumption process which is still ongoing," she added.

Despite initial interventions to restore the system which various court services rely on, users continued to experience challenges even after a partial restoration was achieved on Sunday.

Kenyans seeking services from courts will have to use alternative means including sending electronic mails to the stations where they wish to be served, especially where a matter is deemed to be urgent.
