Trial Court launches Odyssey case management system

Washtenaw County Trial Court launched a new case management system, Odyssey, on Oct. 27. The system offers numerous benefits, including no longer maintaining paper files at the courthouse and offering better customer service via a public website. In addition to public access from the Trial Court's home page, a website is available allowing attorneys access to their cases at the Trial Court, along with images attached to the case files. Attorneys can login and see the case file via the Internet as well as print the documents in the file. This benefit is being offered at no charge as a way to share information in a paperless environment. Only images from approximately Oct. 27 will be available on case files; for anything prior to Oct. 27, there may be a reference to a document on a case but not an attached image. Attorneys will need to request a login from the Trial Court via email to lowellka@ewashtenaw.org, with "Attorney Access" on the subject line. Allow 3 to 4 business days for a response with the login and temporary password (attorneys will be prompted to change the password at first login). Then cases can be accessed at https://tcweb.ewashtenaw.org/attorneys. This link is also available at "Links" on the left side of the Trial Court home page and then by clicking on Attorney access to Odyssey. Published: Mon, Dec 22, 2014
