What it does:
The CourtServe 2000 icon 
on the PC desktop is the entry point to sophisticated web-enabled software, an integral part of the CourtServe 2000
service. Users can automatically track all cases scheduled for hearings at the Royal Courts of Justice, Crown Courts, County Courts around England and Wales (now rolling out
progressively) and 25 Employment Tribunals - (EW&S). CourtServe 2000 alerts users to relevant cases in each list subscribed
for. The service updates continuously with digital lists received via the internet moments after they are published by the Court Service (an executive agency of the Department for Constitutional Affairs).
It
also delivers the Judiciary Service, a weekly diary of court vacancies and other information for deputy judges in the London
region. Access to this e-mailed service is restricted to individual recorders approved by the London Group Managers Office.

Why CourtServe 2000?:
It is a service that saves practitioners time and money. It helps users in criminal sets for example, track cases significantly faster during the critical mid-afternoon
rush. It allows barristers to know instantly from their laptops, where their cases are being heard and informs solicitors of last-minute county court hearing
changes. Solicitors, sole practitioners and legal firms who use it, can also benefit from case alerts and tracking efficiency by loading case entries directly into the application
so that it acts as their personal case diary. Court lists in CourtServe 2000 are delivered electronically, fully indexed, formatted (RCJ lists only) for printing and viewable in a CourtServe 2000 window which works like a simple word processor. |
