A ticket is issued and a case is initiated

From electronically issuing a ticket that instantly uploads the information into the court’s case management system to sending an automatic text message alerting the defendant of payment options, the Municipal Justice software suite has everything you need to efficiently share data with law enforcement – without using a third party vendor.

Many cases are resolved online

With the intuitive online case resolution tools available in Municipal Justice, a defendant can immediately pay a fine or select other options to take care of the ticket in a timely manner, including:

• Online Payments
• Request a Program
• Request a Court Date
• Compliance Dismissal
• Online Hearings Using Virtual Court

The court prepares its case docket

When a case can’t easily be resolved online, you can use Tyler's industry-leading Municipal Justice case management system to easily prepare dockets, including the capability to issue subpoenas and send officer notification emails from a customizable home page.

Court begins

With state-of-the-art features like virtual court and jury management, the Municipal Justice system has everything your court needs to conduct business quickly and efficiently. Directly integrated into the software are time-saving tools like defendant check-in and a live docket that allows you to make real-time changes to cases.

Defendant stays connected

Throughout the life of the case, the court can send automated text reminders about hearing dates, payments, and more.

Keeping cases up to date

The Municipal Justice suite comes with its own easy button that allows you to make updates to cases one at a time or in bulk! You can easily customize the software to reflect your court’s current business practices by personalizing user-defined fields.

Processing payments and resolving the case

From online payments to offsite kiosks to intuitive integrations with your city’s financial software, Tyler's Municipal Justice software was designed to help you make it easy for defendants to pay citations and resolve their cases.

Issuing a warrant

Despite offering opportunity after opportunity to resolve a case, there will always be some defendants that do not comply. For this reason, Municipal Justice integrates with the leading public safety software to make sharing information between jurisdictions automatic. Plus, you can easily alert a defendant of a warrant using text notifications.

Beyond a fine

When resolving a case takes more than making a payment, Municipal Justice has the tools you need to track community service and other programs. Plus, it integrates with Tyler Supervision to eliminate the need to use multiple systems to track and modify offender and case information.

Reporting

Whether the case is resolved in one day or remains open, Municipal Justice has the reporting features you need to share metrics and meet state regulations quickly and easily. More than 80 standard reports are built into the software, covering state mandates, dockets, warrants, officers, offenses, profiling, statistics, and much more.
