The Cherokee County Board of Commissioners has approved an intergovernmental agreement giving the Cherokee County School Police Department access to the “eWarrants” system, letting them obtain warrants electronically and more efficiently communicate with judges.
The system, which lets parties access the same documents while conversing via video conferencing, “allows law enforcement and the judge to discuss and issue arrest or search warrants in a matter of minutes” versus hours traditionally required to obtain an arrest or search warrant, according to an agenda request to commissioners by Chief Magistrate Judge James E. Drane III.
"Documents can be signed, reviewed electronically and printed at each location without the need to travel," Drane said. Information: https://bit.ly/2URB8eL
