Session 2 will include presentations and technology demonstrations by Caselines Thomson Reuters and Omnigo.

As discussed during our latest iteration of the Courts Virtual Summit Series, we plan to have open-ended discussions with participants about issues related to digital evidence, primarily within Courts and Law Enforcement communities nationwide. Our goals are to help identify the problems, discuss needed solutions, and pinpoint where the IJIS community can better support. During this session, we will also have participants from the IJIS Law Enforcement Imaging Technology Task Force (LEITTF) to highlight issues their group is tackling and how others can help. Please feel free to send this invitation along to interested parties.

COVID has broken both the operating model of the courts and the barriers to the adoption of court technology. Calls for social justice have injected urgency and underscored the need for care and equity in implementing technology solutions. This panel discusses the landscape and the new paradigm / framework for court operations and technology.

The Pandemic shut down courthouses and precluded all but the most critical hearings. Since those early days of operations, courts have cobbled together solutions for delivering virtual hearings. These solutions have
been effective enough to suggest that virtual hearings will be here to stay. Many improvements are needed to make virtual hearings technology more effective and sustainable.

Our courts have been creating and storing electronic records for decades. Where does the data come from, what shape is it in, and what part does it play to ensure justice and community safety today? As courts continue to grow their digital assets, what can industry be doing to help them harness and manage their data? Join us to talk about unlocking this most valuable resource for improved information access, sharing, and policy analysis.
