Court trials and weddings can take place in the Metaverse<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

According to a Singaporean government minister, legal marriage ceremonies, court case disagreements, and government services may one day be made available in the Metaverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edwin Tong, Singapore's second minister for law, asserted at the TechLaw Fest 2022 on July 20 that even highly customized, private ceremonies like the solemnization of weddings have been conducted online in the Metaverse:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt would not be unthinkable that, besides registration of marriages, other government services can soon be accessed online via the Metaverse.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The Minister went on to say that there is “no reason why the same cannot be done for legal services” in the Metaverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe pandemic has already shown us that even dispute resolution \u2014 once seen to be a physical, high-touch process […] can also be held almost entirely online.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tong used the following scenario to illustrate how augmented reality (AR)\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> technology may be used to examine a legal issue involving, for instance, an accident on a building site in three dimensions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou can put yourself into the actual tunnel or the oil containment facility to look at the construction dispute from the perspective of an augmented reality, representing the actual space.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

According to Tong, the incorporation of such technology would not prevent the holding of conventional offline sessions. There “may always be a hybrid aspect,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe such an integrated platform will make the whole dispute resolution process more convenient, efficient, and it keeps pace with how the rest of the world is developing.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Decentraland<\/a> had its first wedding earlier this year, inviting 2,000 virtual guests and Rose Law Group to help legalize the union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Jordan Rose, the founder and president of the organization, it was the first wedding ever held on a blockchain-based Metaverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The government of South Korea<\/a>, meantime, has already begun moving toward the Metaverse after allocating $177 million to create a platform that would allow individuals to access a variety of government services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
