Chief Secretary Sameer Sharma discussed the implementation of the Online Legal Case Management System (OLCMS) in a meeting with Advocate General (A-G) S. Sriram and Government Pleaders (GPs) at the Secretariat on Wednesday.
Mr. Sharma said Andhra Pradesh was the first State to launch the OLCMS and it was helping the officers concerned in filing counters and other documents with the cooperation of the GPs as and when cases came up for hearing in courts.
He observed that up to 50% of the cases were non-financial in nature and their pendency could be brought down to a large extent by just giving proper explanations to the courts. Besides, by doing so, the departments could avoid contempt proceedings.
