vNotices! - Registration
Procedures
The
CourtStuff.com site has innovated a feature called vNotices!
that utilizes a Judicial Information System Technology (JIST)
robot developed by Charles Matz to email electronic "virtual"
notices (vNotices!) of case activity.
Most frequent question: "How much does
it cost?"
Answer: Like all of the information available on the CourtStuff.com
site, registration and vNotices! are "Free". |

vNotices! - Features and Making Changes |
| |
|
After "Cost" and
"How do I Register/Subscribe", the most frequently asked vNotice!
question is: |
| Change of Email address |
|
Reregister with your new information
and send an email to thewebmaster @ courtstuff.com notifying
him when you want your previous registration deleted. |
| |
|
For other features
and for changes other than email address changes please note
the following: |
|
vNotices! (electronic notes) are
transmitted in five forms: |
| |
|
|
| Case |
 |
Emailed when changes occur in a particular case. The user
tells the system their email address and the case number(s)
they wish to receive vNotices for. Then, when the web site is
updated, if changes are noted in the information for the case(s),
an email is sent describing the changes. |
| Calendar |
|
Emailed when the 5th Court's Clerk's office Case Management
program indicates a "Due" date on the Case "Calendar". (ex.
If Calendar says Appellant's Brief Due on a particular date,
if (1) Calendar vNotices! are requested and (2) the user has
"Subscribed" the case to receive vNotices!, then in addition
to the "Case" vNotices!, "Calendar" vNotices! are emailed on
that "Due" date |
| Tickler |
|
Same as Calendar vNotices! but emailed 1 week prior to "Due"
date. |
| Filings |
|
Emailed when new cases of a particular type are docketed.
Users have the option of requesting a listing of new cases filed
from any of the following categories: |
|
|
| (1) |
Send listing for any
new (or reactivated) cases that are docketed |
| (2) |
Send listing for any
new (or reactivated) Civil cases that are docketed |
| (3) |
Send listing for any
new (or reactivated) Criminal cases that are docketed |
| (4) |
Do not send any new
cases listings |
|
| Opinion |
|
Emailed when opinions of a particular type issue. When users
"register" with the system, they have the option of also requesting
a listing of opinions from any of the following categories: |
|
|
| (1) |
Send listing for any
opinions that issue |
| (2) |
Send listing for any

| (3) |
Send listing for any

| (6) |

| (7) |

|
|
When the web site is updated,
listings for the various opinion categories are emailed automatically
to users. |
|
|
|
How to register for vNotices!,
as easy as 1-2-3 |
| Step 1 |
|
User must register their email address
with the CourtStuff site. The Registration form is found
at http://courtstuff.net/5th/register.html |
| Step 2 |
|
On the registration form is a box to indicate
the type of "Opinion" vNotices! to send. Fill in the form;
select the appropriate type of "Opinions"; and Submit the
form. Confirmation will be emailed to the address submitted
when the registration is completed. |
| Step 3 |
|
After the confirmation of registration
is received, send an email addressed to CaseInfo@CourtStuff.com
and on the subject line type the word
Subscribe and the 5th Court's case number (i.e. Subscribe
05-96-01234-CV). (Hint: If you're not sure about the email
method, at the bottom of each of the 5th Court Docket Sheets
is a link to automatically email the "subscription" for
that case).
For example: If johndoe@anyplace.com wanted to subscribe
for case number 05-97-01234-CR, the email should be as follows:
From: johndoe@anyplace.com
To: caseinfo@courtstuff.com
Subject: subscribe 05-97-01234-CR
