TO : ALL SELECTED FIRST LEVEL COURT JUDGES AND BRANCH CLERKS OF COURT/OFF1CERS-IN-CHARGE

SUBJECT : SMALL CLAIMS CASE MONITORING SYSTEM (SC2MS) SURVEY

On 26 March 2014, the Office of the Court Administrator, in cooperation with the American Bar Association Rule of Law Initiative, disseminated survey/questionnaires on the Small Claims Case Monitoring System (SC2MS) to a select group of courts to gather insights and perspectives on how to improve the Amended Rule of Procedure for Small Claims Cases and the SC2MS. 1

To further assess the needed amendments to the Amended Rule of Procedure for Small Claims Cases as well as improve the SC2MS, it is necessary to acquire additional data from the litigants. Thus, the branch clerks of court/ officers-in- charge of the selected courts 2 are hereby directed to: (1) encode on to the SC2MS all the required data for the cases you have listed as samples under OCA Circular No. 43-2014, and (2) disseminate the attached questionnaires for plaintiffs, and thereafter mail them back to the Office of the Court Administrator using, the paid I.envelopes provided herein.

Your utmost cooperation in completing the survey is hereby enjoined.
