What’s in it

AI summary Iowa's court system will build a new computer program that allows the judicial branch and county attorneys to automatically share digital court documents. To help with this change, the state will provide money to county attorneys to cover the costs of updating their own computer systems. The judicial branch must also give a report to the legislature after the new system is finished.1

Read the official explanation

This bill requires the judicial branch to create an automated data exchange system between the electronic document management system of the judicial branch and the electronic case management systems used by county attorneys for court filings. The judicial branch is required to create the automated data exchanged system within nine months of the effective date of the bill. The bill directs the judicial branch to submit a progress report to the general assembly within six months of completing the automated data exchange system. The bill appropriates moneys from the general fund to the judicial branch for FY 2025-2026 for reimbursement to county attorneys for costs incurred for updating a case management system to be compatible with the automated data exchange system.
