PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) signed an agreement with the Vermont Judiciary for Tyler’s Odyssey® unified case management system for all case types and a statewide e-filing software solution. This agreement expands Odyssey’s presence in New England as the leading provider of court software and brings greater access to justice for all of Vermont’s constituents.
eFileVT™ will provide the state of Vermont with the ability to electronically review and accept court case filings from litigants across the state. Vermont will become the 15th client to deploy Odyssey File & Serve (OFS) statewide across all courts, and the 25th state where OFS is being used.
Vermont’s selection of Tyler came after a rigorous multi-year process spent reviewing various vendors’ solutions and their technical capabilities, and conducting site visits to reference customers.
“We needed a proven solution to enable our transformation to a 21st century operational model. Tyler’s experience in statewide court implementations will support our move away from a paper-driven world with best practice-based functional and technical solutions,” said Jeff Loewer, chief information officer of the Vermont Judiciary. “Implementing modern case data intake, processing, electronic records systems, and e-filing will reduce tedious clerical work, significantly improve the efficiency of workflows, and result in better service to the citizens of Vermont.”
Tyler's Odyssey solution will replace Vermont’s custom legacy system and will accommodate e-filing, document management, workflows, dashboards, jury management, and other modern court case management system functions. Vermont chose multiple Odyssey modules, including Case Management, File & Serve, Jury, and Guide & File.
“Tyler is proud of our successes in other New England states with similar goals as Vermont, and we are eager to help the Vermont Judiciary further their vision of providing equal access to justice, protecting individual rights, resolving legal disputes fairly and timely, and providing everyone the opportunity to have their day in court," said Bruce Graham, president of Tyler's Courts & Justice Division. "Not only will we help create a paperless system for Vermont, but we will also increase access to justice and help make the Vermont Judiciary even more efficient.”
Vermont will benefit from Tyler's evergreen perpetual licensing approach that provides regular and significant, yet manageable, software enhancements without an additional relicensing fee, ensuring all systems are using the latest technology.
Tyler has successfully implemented Odyssey more than 100 times across the country. In all, Odyssey serves more than 900 counties with a combined population of more than 120 million, comprising 40 percent of the U.S. population.
