The 31st Judicial District will implement a new case management computer system starting next week, which will mean changes for those who use the current electronic filing system or make electronic payments to the court.
The changes will apply to the Allen County District Court and other courts within the district. Several other districts across the state are also switching to the new system.
The court will stop taking electronic filings at 3 p.m. Tuesday until the morning of Nov. 2.
Anything filed between that time period must be made by paper. All payments must be made by cash or paper check.
The clerk’s office will be closed for court business on Friday, Oct. 30, though all scheduled hearings and dockets will continue.
Starting Nov. 2, the eFiling system will be available again for electronic payments and electronic court filings can be made. All courts will reopen for public business.
Public records will become available through the Kansas District Court Public Access Portal.
Public records not available through the public access portal will be available at the courthouse using a courthouse terminal. Each court has a computer reserved for public searches of court cases and court records in that court.
