Court Management System Software Project

The Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program (JAG) allows states and units of local government, including tribes, to support a broad range of activities to prevent and control crime based on their own state and local needs and conditions. Grant funds can be used for state and local initiatives, technical assistance, training, personnel, equipment, supplies, contractual support, and information systems for criminal justice, including for any one or more of the following purpose areas: 1) law enforcement programs; 2) prosecution and court programs; 3) prevention and education programs; 4) corrections and community corrections programs; 5) drug treatment and enforcement programs; 6) planning, evaluation, and technology improvement programs; and 7) crime victim and witness programs (other than compensation).

Clarendon County will utilize the Fiscal Year 2011 JAG award to upgrade technical software, which will increase efficiency and streamline processes in their county court system. Funds will allow the grantee to purchase the ICON Case Management System, which provides web-based solutions for county recording, court records management and integrated justice.
