[dss] Use case: court filing

[John Messing <jmessing@law-on-line.com>]

The Arizona Court of Appeals Division Two uses a web server signature service as part of its in-house application called e-filer. The production version is html-based. An XML version is planned based upon the LegalXML CourtFiling 1.1 and CourtDocument 1.1 recommended standards (of judicial-related bodies). In a paper, Mohyeddin Abulaziz, Director of Information Technology at the University of Arizona James E. Rogers Law School and the Arizona Court of Appeals explains the operation of e-filer, including authentication methods of filers, filing procedures with screen shots, and signature technology. See https://www.apltwo.ct.state.az.us/e-filer/abatechshow2002.pdf.

After emails and a telephonic conversation with Mr. Abdulaziz, I am informed and believed there is no copyright or other IPR in this document either for him or any other individual or any institution or entity.
