Supreme Court proposed amendment would allow electronic submission of caseload statistics.

Supreme Court proposed amendment would allow electronic submission of caseload statistics.

Local courts would submit caseload statistics electronically under amendments proposed by the Ohio Supreme Court. The Supreme Court will accept public comment on the proposal until January 8, 2013.

Currently, Case Management Section staff members manually enter data from hard copy report forms submitted by judges across Ohio. This information forms the basis of the annual Ohio court statistical report. It is also used to analyze case filing patterns and trends to assist local courts in managing their resources.

Under the proposed rule amendments, local courts would continue to submit paper reports until notified by the Case Management Section. An information technology application is under development to capture the data.

Stephanie Hess, manager of the Case Management Section
Supreme Court of Ohio
65 South Front Street, sixth floor
