Macomb courts unveil new information website

Macomb County Circuit and Probate courts have launched a new web-based court information access portal called eAccess.

It’s part of a new line of eServices offered by CourtView Justice Solutions, the court’s current case management system provider.

Cout officials say eAccess is compatible with current web browser technology including availability through mobile devices.

“The new eAccess web portal allows us to respond to our constituents’ desire for immediate access to case information,” said John Foster, chief judge of Macomb County Circuit and Probate courts. “eAccess users can gain electronic access from virtually anywhere with a smart phone or tablet device.”

The new application, launched by the Macomb County Information Technology Department in collaboration with the court last month, can be reached by navigating to http://macombgov.org/pa.

eAccess will function in today’s most commonly-used browsers.

Court officials say the website has been tested and supports the use of Microsoft Internet Explorer Version 8 or later, Google Chrome Version 24 or later and Mozilla Firefox Version 3 or later.

eAccess is also known to work with Apple’s browser Safari across Mac computers, iPads, iPhones and iPod touches.

Users can search by case number, case type, file date, party/company name, date of birth, party type, case status or attorney name and bar number.

Once a case has been located, general case information and case details such as dockets, parties, charges, events, financials and receipts are available.

Users can see all information on a case at once or isolate information by subject matter tabs.

Sealed cases, confidential information and images of documents will not be available.
