E-COURT
Innovations for the digital age		 Clerk's Comment
A cooperative effort with the County IT staff to allow a user to search the County's database for all courts to check schedules by judge, by case number or by attorney or party name. For State Court cases, E-Docketalso allows a user to review all events that have occurred in a civil or criminal case.
This feature allows a person to check the docket of the State Court Traffic Violations Bureau. for the date, time and place a case is scheduled to be heard and to see the bond amount set by the Court for each citation. Also, with E-Ticket, a user may post a bond and thereby secure the right to choose between appearing in court, and allowing the Court to dispose of the case by forfeiting the bond.
Allows a user to check the State Court financial database tor the outstanding balance in any state criminal case where a fine, restitution or both was ordered. It also allows the user to pay part of all of the balance online using either a Mastercard, VISA or Discover credit card.
With E-Court the simple goal is to maximize the public's access to the court while protecting the privacy rights of our citizens from unreasonable intrusion.

By law, all documents filed with a court, except those sealed by a judge, are available for public viewing. E-Court provides for some of that assess as well as access to other court facilities.

We believe the right balance has now been struck between public access needs and privacy rights. Please let us know what you think. After all, it's your Court.
