PC JIMS CMS setup

Setup for ALL attorneys (private, SA and PD)

Link an attorney to their email address in PC JIMS, so that Judici can identify them when they request access to their online documents.

  1. Set up (verify) an attorney in your Attorney Address record. It should include the attorney's ARDC number and email address.

1.    Go to PC JIMS (Technical\Case Management Tables\Edit Attorneys).

2.    Search for the attorney's name on the Name Tab of the Attorney Hub to determine if they're already in your system: they may have been previously entered, maybe with the wrong ARDC, or with an abbreviated name. They may have been entered incorrectly multiple times.

            a.   If no record found, search by ARDC, email address and/or alternate spellings of their name.

3.    If your search yields no entries, add the attorney to this table.

a.    Go to File/New Attorney

b.    Enter their information, and Save.

·         ARDC

·         Attorney name (Last name, First name)

·         Address (use the courthouse address)

·         Email address

4.    If your search yields one or more entries, confirm which, if any, is the correct one.

a.    Double‐click it to enter the Edit Attorney screen to review/correct the attorney's information as needed, and Save.

5.    If your search yields multiple entries for the same attorney, (either under different spelling of the same name, or the wrong ARDC) you need to fix this. You should finish with only one correct entry for the attorney.

a.    If none of the entries are for the right person, go to File\New Attorney to create a new entry with the attorney's correct information, as described above.

b.    Once you have a correct entry for the attorney, you need to clean up the bad entries.

          1. Identify the bad attorney entries you located.
          2. Right-click on an entry with an incorrect Regis. No., and choose Change Regis.
          3. Retype the attorney's name (last name, first name) alongside the incorrect entry, in the New Name column.
          4. Once entered, click the drop-down menu that appears to see all entries with the attorney's name.
          5. Select the correct entry, and check the box that reads “Delete attorney record after re-numbering.” This will delete the bad attorney entry.
          6. Click Save.
          7. Click OK when done.
          8. Search for the same name again. This will show that the bad entry is gone.
          9.  Repeat this procedure to correct all bad entries.

                                   7.  Direct attorneys to Save their email address to PC JIMS.
                                        a.   Ask your attorneys to log into PC JIMS.
                                        b.   Click the GAL Support tab at lower right.
                                        c.   Enter their Email Address, the same that's associated with their Judici account, and Save.
