In response to this need, case flow management has emerged to become the central method of promoting greater court responsibility and accountability for efficient case processing. For over thirty years court case management concepts have evolved, starting in the United States (U.S.), spreading to other industrialized common law countries initially. Yet, for many judicial systems, the concept, techniques, and supporting systems of case flow management are still relatively new ideas that need to be more fully understood. This paper helps develop a basic understanding of case flow management by defining the concept, outlining the various techniques used, presenting in general the different case management information systems that support those techniques, and outlining the core steps a judicial system can take to plan for, select, and implement case management software. The aim is to provide an introduction for assisting judiciaries in developing a case flow management approach that works best in their own environment. This paper is organized as follows: chapter one gives introduction; chapter two answers the question to what is case flow management within a court environment?; chapter three answers what are case management information systems?; chapter four focuses on planning for, selecting, and implementing new case management software; and chapter five gives conclusions.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO JUSTICEACCOUNTS RECEIVABLEADMINISTRATION SUPPORTADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSESALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTIONARCHIVEAUCTIONSAUTOMATIC NOTIFICATIONSAUTOMATIONBANKRUPTCYBASICBENCHMARKBUSINESS PROCESSESCAPABILITIESCASE BACKLOGSCASE HISTORIESCASE HISTORYCASE MANAGEMENTCASE MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUESCIVIL LAWCODESCOMMERCIAL COURTSCOMMON LAWCOMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIESCOMPETITIVENESSCOMPONENTSCOMPUTER SYSTEMSCOMPUTERIZATIONCOMPUTERSCONNECTIVITYCONTENT MANAGEMENTCONTENT MANAGEMENT SOFTWARECONTENTSCONTROL SYSTEMCORRUPTIONCOURTCOURT ADMINISTRATIONCOURT CASE MANAGEMENTCOURT DECISIONSCOURT JUDGMENTSCOURT MANAGEMENTCOURT OPERATIONSCOURT PROCESSCOURTSCRIMINALCRIMINAL JUSTICEDATA ELEMENTSDATA ENTRYDATA MANAGEMENTDATA SECURITYDESCRIPTIONDIGITALDISCLOSUREDISMISSALDISPUTE RESOLUTIONDOCUMENT MANAGEMENTDOMESTIC VIOLENCEE-MAILELECTRICITYELECTRONIC DATAELECTRONIC DATA MANAGEMENTELECTRONIC DOCUMENTELECTRONIC DOCUMENTSELECTRONIC FILINGELECTRONIC FORMELECTRONIC LIBRARYEMPOWERMENTEND-USERENGINEERINGENTRIESFILINGSFINANCIAL MANAGEMENTFINANCIAL RESOURCESFUNCTIONALITIESHARD COPYHARDWAREHUMAN RESOURCEHUMAN RESOURCE CAPACITIESICTIMAGINGINDEX CARDSINDEXINGINFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIESINFORMATION DISSEMINATIONINFORMATION EXCHANGEINFORMATION EXCHANGESINFORMATION NEEDSINFORMATION PORTALSINFORMATION SERVICESINFORMATION SYSTEMINFORMATION SYSTEMSINFORMATION TECHNOLOGYINFORMATION TRANSFERINSTANT ACCESSINTERCONNECTIVITYJAILJUDGEJUDGESJUDICIAL SYSTEMJUDICIAL SYSTEMSJURISPRUDENCEJUSTICEJUVENILE OFFENDERSKIOSKSKNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENTLAWYERSLEGAL FRAMEWORKLEGAL INFORMATIONLEGAL INSTITUTIONSLEGAL RESEARCHLEGAL STATUSLEGAL SYSTEMLEGISLATIONMAINTENANCE COSTSMANAGEMENT INFORMATIONMANAGEMENT SOFTWAREMANAGEMENT SYSTEMMANAGEMENT SYSTEMSMANUSCRIPTMANUSCRIPTSMATERIALMEDIAMEDIATIONMONITORSOFFENDERSOPEN SOURCE SOFTWAREPAPER DOCUMENTSPHOTOSPORTALSPRIVACYPRIVACY POLICIESPROCUREMENTPRODUCTIVITYPROGRAMMINGPROPRIETARY SOFTWAREPROPRIETARY SYSTEMSPROSECUTORSREGISTERSREGISTRYRELATIONAL DATABASERELIABILITYREPOSITORYRESULTRESULTSRULE OF LAWSCANNINGSEARCHSEARCHESSERVERSIMULATIONSMALL CLAIMS COURTSSOFTWARE APPLICATIONSSOFTWARE COMPANYSOFTWARE PACKAGESSOFTWARE PROGRAMSSOFTWARE SOLUTIONSOFTWARE SOLUTIONSSOFTWARE SYSTEMSOFTWARE VENDORSSOURCE CODESUPPORT STAFFSYSTEM SOFTWARETECHNICAL ISSUESTELEPHONETERMINOLOGYTRACKING SYSTEMTRACKING SYSTEMSUSE OF INFORMATIONUSER GROUPUSERSVIDEOWEBSITEWILLWORKFLOW MANAGEMENTWorld Bank10.1596/16676
