Bexar County JP Courts going all electronic

The Bexar County Justice of the Peace Courts have implemented an automated case management, scheduling and document filing system that is designed to improve staff productivity and streamline workflow.

The new software programs were developed by Herndon, Va.-based AMCAD. The suite of programs includes AMCAD’s integrated Case Management System (AiCMS) and the AMCAD integrated Capture System. The new system will allow for electronic citation issuance and electronic filing of truancy cases. It also will make possible remote access for the public to view case and calendar information.

In addition, AiCS provides access to documents electronically, eliminating the need to transfer paper between locations.

“Bexar County is AMCAD‘s first AiCMS installation in the state of Texas,” says Visagar Shyamsundar, AMCAD‘s chief operating officer. “We are very excited and committed to providing a state of the art technology solution that will improve the courts operations and provide better service to the people of Bexar County.”

Bexar County is the 20th largest county by population in the United States.
