Missouri's Judicial Branch has been involved in implementation of a statewide case management system for almost ten years. One of the slowest, most costly and most complex parts of bringing every division and every level of court onto one, statewide system is merging the historical data from a variety of old automated systems into the new case management software. However, due to financial and reporting requirements, this conversion was mandatory.
Conversion was a tedious process due to the complex nature of the data and the information each piece of data represented. In an effort to reduce the time and cost of conversion, project staff from the Missouri Office of State Courts Administrator (OSCA) became involved with the development of national standards for the use of a technology called Extensible Markup Language (XML) and the national standards initiative called the Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM).
