CANTON — The St. Lawrence County Public Defender's office will soon have new case management software.
County Legislators on the finance committee voted to approve the purchase of a new case management software for the department on Aug. 8.
According to the resolution, “the New York State Defenders Association (NYSDA) developed software that permits indigent defense providers to monitor and track data in a uniform and consistent manner across New York State called Public Defender Case Management System (PDCMS).”
The contract will be extended to Aug. 21, 2023, adding an additional year to the previously authorized contract, the resolution also states.
The $9,000 cost “associated with the licenses, maintenance and support has been and should continue to be , funded by State grant money received through annual distribution of the Indigent Legal Services Fund,” officials say.
