SPECIFIC REPORTS PRODUCED BY THE COMPUTERIZED COURT INFORMATION SYSTEM SERVING THE DELAWARE, PA., COUNTY COMMON PLEAS COURT, DISTRICT JUSTICE COURT, AND RELATED AGENCIES ARE EVALUATED, AND QUALITY CONTROL RECOMMENDED.
Abstract
THIS LAST IN A SERIES OF REPORTS FINDS THAT ACCEPTANCE AND USE OF THE OUTPUT OF THE COMPUTERIZED INFORMATION SYSTEM ARE INCREASING, BUT THAT MUCH GREATER ATTENTION MUST BE PAID TO QUALITY CONTROL IF USER AGENCIES ARE TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE SYSTEM. A POLICY COMMITTEE SHOULD ALSO SET PRIORITIES, BOTH LONG-TERM AND SHORT-TERM, TO END THE CONFLICT OVER USE OF THE SYSTEM. REPORTS PRODUCED ARE ANALYZED INDIVIDUALLY, CURRENT DISTRIBUTION NOTED, AND SUGGESTIONS MADE FOR GREATER USE. SAMPLES OF REPORTS GENERATED ARE INCLUDED.
