Discuss, consider and take appropriate action to approve the re:SearchTx Participation Agreement between Tyler Technologies and the Williamson County District Clerk.

The participation Agreement with Tyler technologies allows the integration into re:SearchTX. re:SearchTX is a statewide portal that allows judges, attorney and the public to view documents within the portal for information on cases that have been eFiled. The Supreme Court adopted standards for the filing and viewing of cases within re:SearchTx in November 2018. HB 685 provides that a court clerk, as defined, is not responsible for the management or removal of a document from a state court document database, as defined, and provides that the court clerk and the court clerk's county are not liable for damages resulting from the document's release if the clerk acted in good faith. The integration also relieves some of the duties in entering certain cases manually in the database and also forwarding information to the Office of Court Administration. The user may make copies from the database that will be watermarked and shown to be copied from re:SearchTx. If certification of a document is needed, they will be informed they must go to the clerk of the court.
