OASIS LegalXML Electronic Court Filing TC

Hello, John, and members of the List,

In perusing the draft revised Charter, I have realized we haven't stressed that it is a goal of the TC to develop XML documents that would be marked up in such a way as to automate data extraction and eliminate duplicative data entry for court filings. Accordingly, I propose that the draft Charter revision be amended to include language such as:

"the TC intends to develop techniques and principles for creating XML legal documents for the purpose of data capture and re-use without manual re-entry, across a broad spectrum of uses, including court filings."

I hope others will endorse this added purpose and, if anyone has better language, please offer it. 

Thanks!

Roger

As a fellow representative of the Court User domain, I wholeheartedly
endorse Roger's sentiments. Many Court staff and managers don't even
want to hear about e-filing unless it will save them work (e.g. the area
of case management system data entry). 

We must try to leverage more from e-filing in this regard.
