New software brings integrated justice while
increasing efficiency and transparency
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) announced today that Webb
County, Texas, has gone live with Tyler’s Odyssey® court case
management system. The case management software combines advanced
functionality with ease-of-use that will allow the county to better
track all aspects of court management. In addition, the public
defender’s office is live with Odyssey Attorney Manager™, and the
pretrial services division is live with Odyssey Supervision™, Case
Manager™ and Jail Manager™.
By using multiple Odyssey solutions within its software suite,
the various departments of the county will be able to seamlessly
communicate case information with one another. Improvements for the
county include electronic filing, electronic citations, and an
upcoming interface for the district attorney’s office. The
implementation has allowed the district clerk’s office in Webb
County to digitize financial assessments and collections, which
were previously all tracked on paper. This transition to a
paperless system has also automated state reporting and increased
overall accuracy while also saving the county time and money.
“The enhancements provided by Odyssey allow the court system in
Webb County to share information across departments and divisions,
resulting in staff having increased access to data and more
efficient processes,” said Hon. Joe Lopez, Texas State District
Judge for the 49th Judicial District. “Tyler’s experienced team has
also helped make the implementation process run as smoothly as
possible for both county employees and citizens.”
In total, more than 600 public servants will utilize the
software in Webb County including the offices of the district and
county clerks, the jail, six JP courts, the District and County
courts, Pretrial Services and the Public Defender. Within the JP
courts, the department of public safety citation integration with
Odyssey eliminated a large amount of manual data entry. Using
Odyssey to electronically share information between the court and
all these agencies, and especially the jail, helps make all groups
more efficient, reduces errors, and increases the speed at which
justice is served.
“Tyler is delighted to bring another client live with an
efficient and transparent integrated justice system that helps
connect their community,” said Bruce Graham, president of Tyler’s
Courts & Justice Division. “We look forward to continuing our
partnership with Webb County as they reduce costs with a fully
unified solution.”
Tyler’s Odyssey solution is being used successfully in more than
900 counties across 24 states, covering more than 100 million
people. Laredo, Texas, is the county seat, which has a population
of 250,000. It is also one of the oldest border crossing points
along the U.S.-Mexico border.
