Are you sure?
What parts of the justice system exactly?

I find it hard to believe.

For example, jurists have to use besondere elektronische
Anwaltspostfach (beA); compulsory since 2022-01-01:

   Bereits seit dem 1.1.2018 gilt für Rechtsanwältinnen und
   Rechtsanwälte die passive Nutzungspflicht.

   Am 1.1.2022 ist als nächster Schritt die generelle aktive
   Nutzungspflicht eingeführt worden. Seitdem sind Rechtsanwältinnen und
   Rechtsanwälte flächendeckend verpflichtet, den Gerichten Dokumente
   elektronisch zu übermitteln.

   Der Zugang zum beA sowie die beA-Webanwendung erfolgt wie gewohnt
   über https://www.bea-brak.de.

Courts use something called EGVP.

BNotK is in the process of centralising signatures (use their remote
server instead of a local card).

A lot of institutions are on that system.

It seems to be very complex, custom, walled, mandatory messaging system
without end-to-end encryption and soon (this year) with remote
signatures provided by a third party delegated by BNotK.

I would be surprised if anybody used PGP there.
