Doxpop adds 50% more courts providing increaed access to Indiana's trial courts!!

Doxpop has added 50% more courts, counties, and cases to the Doxpop network. We now provide information on over 19.8 million current and historical cases from over 249 courts in 77 (of 92) Indiana counties.
This is made possible by a recent decision by the Indiana Supreme Court. On September 13, 2011, the Court issued an order (.pdf) requiring that public information from the state-operated case management system ("Odyssey") be made available, for a fee, to authorized bulk recipients (such as Doxpop) in electronic form.
Doxpop has begun to receive Odyssey information and is integrating it into the Doxpop database and website. For the next few months, the information will be updated monthly, and we are working with the judiciary to provide near real-time updates in the new year. In the meantime, you'll have access to the additional historical information for over 7 million cases from 108 courts in 35 counties.
