County Increases Access, Streamlining e-Filing Searches

As part of new Georgia legislation mandating electronic civil filing, Chatham County Courts needed to provide attorneys and self-represented litigants with electronic access to all filed case documents. The county went live with re:SearchGA as its primary case search system in 2022, allowing safe and instant electronic access of mandatory documents to the public while meeting increased demands. Not stopping there, Chatham County continued to streamline access by implementing Defendant Access — a payment solution better suited to take large volume citation payments for constituents. By combining re:SearchGA and Defendant Access, Chatham County not only met court compliance requirements but also provided safer, more efficient access for court users.
