Wyoming Supreme Court Begins E-filing Pilot Project

By Katie

Supreme Court Electronic Docket

From the Judicial Branch News:

---

Effective January 2, 2008, the Wyoming Supreme Court will begin an electronic filing pilot project involving all criminal cases involving the Public Defender's Office and the Attorney General's office. The Court went live with a new case management system in April, 2007, and this is the second phase of the development. The Court now has a fully integrated system with case management and electronic filing. The length of time for the pilot project has not yet been determined, but it is the intention of the Court to open the entire Supreme Court docket to the Wyoming Bar for electronic filing within a year. More information will be available regarding training and instruction for bar members as we work through the pilot project and make those decisions regarding when to go live with all cases.

Also effective January, 2008, the Court's docket will be available for public access on the Court's website. Users will be able to view the cases, see due dates for filing of briefs, and see all of the docket entries and status of all open and closed cases from 2006 to the present. As documents are filed electronically, those documents will also be available for viewing. We believe this will be a valuable asset for the bar and the public, and are pleased to be able to offer this service to the citizens of Wyoming.
