Description of Engagement:
The Justice Court Fund (JCF) Modernization Project is a multi-year, initiative that will facilitate the statutorily required filing and processing of approximately 2,100 justice court reports per month, generating distributions of approximately $450 million in revenue per year to local governments and New York State accounts. Justice Court data is highly complex, and the administration of the JCF currently relies on multiple platforms to receive, process, and code the data. These legacy systems are aging and require replacement. As a result, the modernization of this system will be highly complex and includes many different pieces and dependencies.
