The Supreme Court Electronic Filing Committee has been appointed to study electronic filing of court cases and documents in Kansas.  An organizational meeting of the committee was held June 3, 2009. The Committee is being chaired by Justice Marla J. Luckert, with Justice Dan Biles serving as vice chair.  In addition to judges, court administrators and clerks, attorneys specializing in collection matters and other members of the legal community, the committee includes the chairs of both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees.

“While no one expects implementation of such a statewide program in the immediate future, it is important that we begin looking at how electronic filing could be implemented in the Kansas Courts,” Justice Luckert said in announcing the organizational meeting. “This meeting represents our first steps in understanding what might be involved in developing an electronic filing system that best meets the needs of Kansas courts, attorneys and the public,” she said.

The committee is to make recommendations to the Supreme Court regarding policy decisions that would be necessitated should a statewide electronic filing system be implemented in Kansas. The committee has been divided into three subcommittees to address policy and procedure, finance, and technology.
