Electrical issue affecting Missouri Judiciary systems

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – An electrical failure Saturday, June 29 at one of the

Missouri judiciary’s data centers damaged computer equipment. As a result,

various systems across the state – including Case.net and e-filing – may be

unavailable or have limited functionality. Although the cause of the

failure remains under investigation at this time, there is no reason to

believe this was the result of any suspicious activity.

 

Information technology staff from the Supreme Court of Missouri’s state

courts administrator’s office (OSCA) have been working to restore access to

the case management systems and other impacted systems. Most functionality

is expected to be operational within a few days.

 

Courts will remain open and should be working to continue essential

functions. Any local court-specific notices provided to OSCA or the Court

will be posted to the Notices page online.

 

Electronic filing users may be unable to submit filings for existing cases

during this time. They may be able to file new cases, but the courts may be

unable to process them at this time. For further information, users should

refer to Rule 103.06, which sets out the procedures to follow in the event

the electronic filing system is unavailable at the time a user attempts to

file a document.

 

Questions can be directed to the OSCA Help Desk by calling toll-free at

(888) 541-4894 or by e mail at OSCA.Help.Desk@courts.mo.gov. We appreciate

your patience as we work to resolve the issues.
