Court Management System (CMS)   Sleuth Court Management System (CMS) makes handling the day to day business of municipal courts a breeze. Designed to work either as a complementary system to Sleuth Records Management or as independent court software, Sleuth CMS offers a complete solution for municipal court case and financial management. Defendant information from Sleuth master names provides a quick start for initiating court dockets. Charges, citation and parking ticket and disposition information can be shared between RMS and CMS agencies, minimizing work and increasing court efficiency. Courts can access and update comprehensive information on defendants, including employers, photos, known associates, aliases and warnings.

Sleuth CMS makes it easy on your court personnel through every step of the judicial process. Sleuth CMS lets you process fine payments at any point of the case, manages partial payments and collections, and handles complex sentencing including jail time, community service and schools. Court processing is flexible and customizable, with multiple levels of fine distributions and default payment schedules.

Court case dockets serve as your central file for all court actions. Court date changes, new charges, dispositions, sentencing, fine collection status and associated documents are all viewable from one main screen. You can combine several citations and incidents into one case, and manage all activity through one court appearance.


Bench warrants can be created directly from case dockets and information automatically passed to Sleuth RMS and CAD, triggering Sleuth's automatic warrant warning throughout your shared network, so your officers are aware of outstanding warrants immediately without waiting for paperwork to arrive.


Forms, ranging from pre-trial notices to payment agreement and lengthy judgment forms can be created quickly through Sleuth's built-in mail merge capabilities. All documents associated with a case become a permanent attachment to the master case docket, so a complete record of all actions is available to court personnel. Sleuth allows your court staff to generate and attach a virtually unlimited number of custom court forms and notices to cases.


Plus Sleuth Court Management ensures the integrity and security of your court data and payments. Automatically generated history, extensive financial journals and audits track changes to sensitive case and financial data, so you never have to worry that your records are complete and accurate.
