Technological change has a very significant impact on the functioning of a lawyer. It is not only an advocate, judge, adviser or notary public with a law, but also specialized software in which the law is incorporated. The quality of this software, safety but also the certainty of its correctness is very important for legal certainty and functioning of lawyers. Modern law is not only the text of legal acts or contracts but also IT codes in which the law is incorporated (for example, smart contract). The law is controlled by the courts. The question arises as to who will control the codes in which the law is written. In the EU, only a few countries have recognised this problem when creating the relevant legislation, including Malta and Lichtenstein. And the rest? Shouldn’t we regulate this problem on a European level?
