eFiling is an add-on to the Judicial Enforcement Management System (JEMS) that allows courts to do electronic document filing and management. We understand that the volume of documents and paperwork coming into and out of courts can be staggering. That is why PCSS has developed an electronic document management system.
Electronic Filing from Anywhere and at Anytime
PCSS electronic filing software allows legal professionals to file a document with the court electronically through a website. The advantage of electronic document filing is that it is available 24/7 from anywhere in the world. The system can also provide the ability to initiate a case and request service of documents. The system can allow users to securely pay court-defined fees online.
Paperless Court through Electronic Document Management
Due to the staggering number of documents and paperwork courts receive, PCSS’s electronic filing system is one of many tools that can help in becoming a paperless court. Submitting documents electronically reduces paper significantly. Together, with other PCSS technologies, such as imaging, IVR, and iJEMS web interface, courts can become truly paperless, achieving automated and fully electronic management of documents.
Benefits of Electronic Filing
The electronic filing solution provides a number of useful benefits. Cases filed electronically often have follow-up documents filed via paper. With the PCSS eFiling solution, legal professionals can add scanned or imaged documents, which are then integrated into the PCSS Case Management System. PCSS’s electronic filing system supports all case types from civil, criminal, or juvenile as well as enforces all court business rules regarding acceptance/rejection of any electronic filing. PCSS’s eFiling software can automate the collection of electronic filing fees, which is always under the control of the court, and create an unlimited number of custom reports.
