System upgrade to take some court systems offline this weekend

TOPEKA—Some court systems will be offline this weekend while the Office of Judicial Administration upgrades the Kansas eCourt case management system.

The Kansas eCourt case management system stores case information, data, and documents for district courts statewide. During the upgrade, the case management system will not communicate with other systems that operate under the Kansas eCourt umbrella, so they will be offline.

Between 6 p.m. CT Friday, December 5, and 8 a.m. CT Monday, December 8, the following services will be offline:

• Kansas Courts eFiling​, or eFlex, which accepts electronically filed documents in district court and appellate cases.

• KSCourts Central Payment Center, which accepts online payments in traffic, criminal, and fish and game cases.

• Kansas Protection Order Portal, which accepts electronically filed documents seeking orders of protection from abuse, stalking, sexual assault, or human trafficking.

• CaseSearch, which allows searching district court case information and documents. It replaces the Kansas District Court Public Access Portal beginning this week. The Kansas Appellate Courts Public Access Portal is unaffected by the upgrade work.

• Online hearing calendar, which displays public hearing information for all district courts statewide.

• Kansas Civil Filings, which gives access to new civil case filings before they are reviewed and accepted by the district court clerk.
