The Ninth Judicial Circuit will leverage Evidencentral’s NICE Justice solution to streamline its justice process to build stronger, safer communities
NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that the State Attorney's Office for the Ninth Judicial Circuit (Florida) will be deploying NICE Justice, one of the cloud solutions in NICE’s Evidencentral platform, to streamline the justice process with a mission of building stronger, safer communities. The Ninth Circuit State Attorney’s Office’s 155 prosecutors, support staff and investigators serve Orange and Osceola counties, and play a vital role in promoting the safety and protection of 1.4 million citizens in the greater Orlando community, handling over 100,000 cases a year.
Monique H. Worrell, State Attorney Ninth Judicial Circuit, Orlando, FL, said, “Our mission is to build stronger, safer communities by bringing to justice those guilty of committing crimes and providing restorative justice for victims. Our prosecutors aren’t merely case-processors, they are problem solvers, and digital evidence is at the center of the work they do to further the cause of justice every day. NICE Justice will help us better manage the ever-growing mountain of digital evidence, by streamlining our intake of digital evidence, merging it into one consolidated view, and making that evidence more accessible, understandable and sharable.”
Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE, said, “Prosecutors look to digital evidence for the truth, but as digital evidence has grown, it has become mired in manual processes and is therefore challenging to manage. NICE Justice helps prosecutors find the truth in digital evidence faster, so they can build and present compelling cases.”
Part of the Evidencentral cloud-based platform, NICE Justice digitally transforms how district attorneys, paralegals and office staff receive, interact with, manage and share digital evidence, from beginning to end.
NICE Justice will help the Ninth Circuit State Attorney’s Office improve efficiency across the entire justice continuum, from evidence intake and investigation to discovery and trial preparation.
With NICE Justice, law enforcement agencies will be able to directly upload digital evidence through a secure portal. That evidence will then be automatically deposited into digital case folders in the cloud for immediate viewing by assigned investigators or attorneys.
NICE Justice also streamlines the discovery process with defense. Instead of sharing evidence via email or duplicating it on discs, NICE Justice enables attorneys to share digital evidence electronically with full chain of custody tracking.
Added Worrell, “NICE has taken the time to understand the day-to-day issues we have managing digital evidence as a State Attorney’s Office. In addition to improving productivity, we’re looking forward to eliminating the daily clerical burden that comes with managing digital evidence, to create a better working environment for our attorneys and staff. We’re excited to see where the future takes us together and how NICE will support us in our mission of justice.”
