PROJECT TO PROVIDE MORE TIMELY AND MORE EXTENSIVE INFORMATION ON CASE LOADS AND CASE STATUS FOR BOTH CENTRAL AND LOCAL INFORMATION NEEDS.

Abstract

THE CENTRAL NEEDS ARE THE SUMMARY INFORMATION USED BY THE SUPREME COURT ADMINISTRATOR OFFICE TO IDENTIFY COMMON ADMINISTRATIVE PROBLEM AREAS. THE LOCAL NEEDS ARE THE DETAILED INFORMATION USED BY THE COURT ADMINISTRATOR AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGE TO IDENTIFY THEIR ADMINISTRATIVE PROBLEM AREAS. THIS REPORT DISCUSSES THE PROPOSED CASE INFORMATION CONTROL SYSTEM CONCEPT WHICH SERVES BOTH OF THESE NEEDS BY DEFINING AND USING A COMMON EFFORT IN EACH COURT TO PRODUCE THE CENTRAL REPORTS AND SOME DAY-TO-DAY REPORTS FOR EACH LOCAL COURT AS WELL. SPECIFIC DESCRIPTIONS OF THE DOCUMENTS REQUIRED ARE ATTACHED IN THE APPENDIX. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT)
