California courts launch new website

As we mentioned here, the California courts have been in the process of developing a new website for some time. That site was launched on February 28 and can be found at www.courts.ca.gov. We’ve taken the new website’s Guided Tour and, based on our preliminary review, we think the new site is user friendly and a substantial improvement over the former site: www.courtinfo.ca.gov. We especially like the Supreme Court’s page and the “Legal Community” link on the home page, which allows attorneys and other legal professionals to quickly access shortcuts to the information they need. If you have comments about the site and how to make it better, send them to websitefeedback@jud.ca.gov.
