Tyler
Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that it has signed an
agreement with the New Mexico Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC)
for Tyler's re:Search®NM portal. re:SearchNM provides a more
efficient way for attorneys, judges, and other constituents to access
important case records and documents at any time and on any device.
re:SearchNM is a web-based portal that provides immediate and secure
access to a consolidated database of case information. The solution
provides a simple, consistent way to view and obtain case records and
documents from courts across the state.
"By having a single portal for case documents, all members of the New
Mexico legal community will have 24/7 access to information," said
Arthur Pepin, director of the New Mexico AOC. "We believe re:SearchNM
will increase efficiency and transparency within our courts, and we look
forward to working with Tyler on this important initiative."
Tyler and the New Mexico AOC expect to provide court constituents many
benefits via the re:SearchNM portal, including:
-
Increased transparency and accessibility of a single portal to a
unified, centralized database
-
Secure access from any device, including PCs, Macs, tablets and
smartphones
-
Support of text searches within PDF documents stored by the court
system
-
Provide email and text alerts on activity related to cases, parties,
and filings
The first phase of implementation will include clerks, judges,
attorneys, self-represented litigants (SRLs), media, and justice
partners, including the district attorney offices and law enforcement
agencies. After a successful implementation, Tyler and the New Mexico
AOC expect to make re:SearchNM available to the public for even greater
transparency and access to justice. re:SearchNM will be modified to
maintain security and confidentiality over sensitive information in
order for the public to access the solution.
For SRLs in particular, re:SearchNM will help increase access to justice
for a group that does not have legal representation. The New Mexico
Supreme Court recently mandated that SRLs be given the same level of
access to electronic case records as attorneys-of-record. re:SearchNM
will allow them to access cases electronically like other members of the
legal community, providing equal access to justice.
"Building off the success we've experienced for re:Search in Illinois
and Texas, we are pleased to be expanding the portal's availability to
New Mexico as we continue to improve access to information for the legal
community," said Terry Derrick, general manager of eSolutions for
Tyler's Courts & Justice Division. "The transparency and accessibility
that re:Search brings to clerks, judges, attorneys, and especially SRLs
will increase efficiency and simplify processes."
