NEW CASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

In February 2016, SBCSC deployed a new case management system (CMS) for criminal and traffic case types―replacing an almost two decade old system. The new CMS includes a full suite of products: Odyssey, Clerk Edition, Portal and Judge Edition. Each of these products were developed to address specific needs of the court and provide expanded functionality in their respective areas. The implementation of the new system provided for automation and integration of financial data, and enhanced reporting and imaging capabilities. This new CMS has laid the foundation for a future pa- perless environment, eFiling, paper-on-demand, and eSignatures. Starting in 2019, SBCSC will begin to deploy its second phase for the remaining case types which include: Small Claims, Landlord Tenant, Civil, Appeals, Probate, LPS, and Family Law including Child Support. The rollout of the new case types are broken into three separate tracks, one building on top of the other starting with Small Claims and Landlord Tenant; Civil and Appeals; and Family Law, Child Support, Probate, and LPS. We look forward to the final chapter of the CMS implementation followed by phases of continual enhancements and refinement to ensure a full functioning CMS that will serve the current and future needs of our court.
