Court Information System (CIS™) Civil
Civil Management System provides up-to-date information on civil, probate, medical review, adoption, and an extensive list of other case types. Features include Minute Processing, Document Processing, Court Calendar, Register of Actions, Suit accounting, and check printing capabilities along with complete financial accounting and attorney billing functions. Paperless process capabilities and integration with the online e-Filing are supported.
Part of the system’s vast flexibility is demonstrated in the judge assignment module. This random selection method of assigning cases is based on rules defined by the Judiciary, providing for case load balancing between judges. Judges can then use the Court Calendar to access their court sessions to quickly view the minutes and documents related to the suit.
Attorneys can be directly related to parties, including maintaining attorney history, even if they are no longer active in the suit.
Transactions, such as charges and deposits, can be assigned to an attorney, party, firm, or any combination thereof. Check processing will allow the printing of checks at desired time intervals like daily, weekly, or monthly. A history of every check written is maintained, and transactions can be set up to be paid again or reversed to never be paid; if a check is voided, all necessary corrective entries are made to the corresponding transactions.
The document processing features allow for the creation of one or more documents simultaneously, which can be sent to one or more attorneys and/or parties concurrently. From there, each document is internally numbered to allow for further review and integration if a document is later returned and scanned. Customized “tags” pull data directly to the documents for instant population of names, addresses, court times, and dates.
Over $60 million in deposits were made in the Civil application during 2017 and 2018!
