Delays in court procedures are observed as potential source of problems to much arbitration and settlements of legal cases now days in India. Corrupt officials and greedy lawyers may instead of speeding up, actually can cause administrative delays in which they have no effect on outcomes but transfer apparent responsibility for decision from elected political officials to agencies or courts. So reformation in administrative procedure in the form of promoting e-government can provide a net benefit to citizens. Developing countries usually face problem of having insufficient infrastructure in fulfilling the needs of providing citizen centric or user centric e-services in various domains such as Judiciary Administration. SaaS based Cloud computing model has a potential to offer solutions in the form of automated useroriented legal case management system while addressing the capital expenditure and it's Return on Investment. It provides service oriented access to end users without compromising on security. It reduces total cost of ownership, facilitates easy deployment and maintenance services by standardizing services and increases end user satisfaction levels. When properly applied to the development of E-Governance Applications, SaaS based Cloud computing architecture models can transform the nation into an Information Society. This paper attempts (i) to highlight the issue of delay happening in the judicial administration process most importantly at the operational level, (ii) mitigating the problems of delay in terms of bringing administration reforms through adopting e-governance applications such as automated legal case management system by using SaaS based Cloud computing e-Governance Portals.

Purpose
Although studies have investigated reasons for software as a service (SaaS) adoption, it is unclear how firm-level SaaS use impacts future SaaS intentions. The purpose of this paper is to propose a theoretical model that integrates the technology-organization-environment framework, institutional theory, diffusion-of-innovation theory and the opportunity-risk framework to analyze the drivers of SaaS use and its continuance intention.


Design/methodology/approach
The authors evaluated the direct, moderating and mediating effects of determinants on SaaS continuance intentions using structural equation modeling and data from 301 firms.


Findings
Results found that top management support and normative pressures influenced SaaS use. Cost saving and security concerns were direct predictors of perceived opportunities and perceived risks, respectively. Perceived opportunities and risks and actual SaaS use influenced SaaS continuance. Interestingly, perceived opportunities were found to be a negative moderator on the relationship between SaaS use and SaaS continuance.


Originality/value
The results reveal insightful and controversial findings for SaaS research.
