The ELI-Unidroit Model European Rules of Civil Procedure were adopted in 2020, published by Oxford University Press in 2021. The project evolved from an intensive collaboration of 45 scholars and practitioners starting in 2014. The ERCP is intended as rules of best practices that can serve as model for the European and national legislator. Xandra Kramer was involved in the project as reporter for the Working group on Provisional measures and co-reporter of the overarching Structure working group. On 5-6 February 2024 a conference took place in Vienna intended to discuss novel features of the Model Rules and to review the impact these Model Rules have had so far. Xandra chaired a panel dedicated to New technologies in civil procedure and enforcement. The Model Rules includes numerous references to digital communication, but since the adoption of these rules digital technology and its use in the judiciary and legal practice have rapidly expanded. Both the European Law Institute and Unidroit have continued their work in area, including ELI project on Digitalisation of Civil Justice Systems.
