We have enhanced our Dial-In service that offered access to civil and family law computer records to produce faster access using the Internet. Web Based Access also provides the access that was added to the Dial-In service in March 1996 for access to the criminal database, which includes District Court Records. This allows attorneys, vendors, employers, landlords and others the information to do background checks as needed including access to imaged Court Documents. With 60,000 cases being filed each year into the 27 civil, family and criminal District courts in Tarrant County, good computer automation is a necessity, not a luxury. Now attorneys, employers, and the general public can do background checks from their own office.
