Odyssey allows users to take in-courtroom, online minutes (i.e., the ability to log actions as they take place). The Courtroom Minutes dialog box is largely a point-of-access to key modules within Odyssey that are accessed from a hearing setting.
From a hearing setting you can do the following:
|
• |
Mark results (mark parties present, enter hearing times, and hearing duration) |
|
• |
Add and view journal entries |
|
• |
Identify key resources in attendance at the hearing |
|
• |
Set new hearings, reschedule hearings, and/or cancel existing hearings |
|
• |
Add interim conditions and view interim conditions |
|
• |
Add exhibits admitted during the hearing and view exhibits previously admitted |
|
• |
Add and/or amend charges |
|
• |
Enter criminal pleas, dispositions, and sentences |
|
• |
Produce minutes sheets and forms |
In some cases, you can perform actions that you would not have the appropriate rights to do otherwise through the minutes
option.
