IMPROVED COMMUNICATION WITH WITNESSES’
Right from the schedule the court liaison can simply reschedule court dates. It will immediately send a notification to the officer via email, text and/or through the app, ensuring officers don’t show up to court when they don’t have to.
TRANSPARENT WITNESS AVAILABILITY
Courts in OC can see if an officer is available without having to call a court liaison. The court can see what percentage of witnesses are available, so they don’t have to worry about the court seeing each individual person’s schedule.
