“The ease and stability of e-filing within our state cannot be
understated, especially during a few key challenging times over the
past decade,” said Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Texas
Nathan Hecht. “During Hurricane Harvey, e-filing allowed us to
continue our courts’ online operations after flooding and related
damage shut down many of our local county courthouses. During the
COVID-19 pandemic, e-filing again allowed us to keep court
operations going after the pandemic severely impacted in-person
interactions in our courts and clerks’ offices.”
“Texas’ e-filing project is the largest mandatory e-filing
system in the country, and the implementation remains one of the
most successful IT projects in our history,” said Megan LaVoie,
administrative director of the Texas Office of Court
Administration. “With the support of district and county officials,
the bar, the private sector, and Tyler Technologies, we have been
able to bring improved access to justice and an enhanced filing
experience to all electronic filers in the state.”
In the past ten years, eFileTexas has achieved notable
milestones including:
- More than 100 million filings and 75 million envelopes,
equating to almost 750 million sheets of paper. When stacked, this
translates to more than 47 miles high.
- More than 760,000 registered e-filing users
- More than 130,000 attorney users
- Nearly 465,000 self-represented litigants
- Partnerships with 24 electronic filing service providers and 11
integrated case management system vendors
The statewide implementation began in June 2013 and was
completed in just two years from the first county going live to the
last. Tyler and the Texas OCA coordinated, trained, and implemented
the e-filing solution in all 254 counties. In total, Tyler
implemented e-filing in 565 offices, including 14 Appellate Courts,
the Court of Criminal Appeals, the Texas Supreme Court, 40 Justice
of the Peace Precincts, and every District and County Clerk office
in the state.
“We’re so proud of the success of our long-standing partnership
with the Texas OCA,” said Brian McGrath, president of Tyler’s
Courts & Justice Division. “The smooth rollout of this project
has made Texas a model for other e-filing implementations in states
like California, Illinois, Indiana, and Georgia. We are also proud
to bring increased access to justice to self-represented litigants
and the entire legal community.”
In addition to e-filing, Tyler also provides its Guide &
File, re:SearchTX, Enterprise Justice Case Management System, and
Redaction solutions to the state of Texas.
