Many Mississippi attorneys and claimants have been asking when and if MWCC will look to fully implement an e-filing system. While e-filling in federal courts has become common practice, other Mississippi state courts are still playing catch up as the move to e-filling catches fire. E-filing is being phased into many Chancery Courts throughout the state. As for MWCC, while a partial e-filling system has been in place for some documents in Mississippi comp cases, a full fledged e-filling system seems to still be in the future. There has been tremendous interest by both practitioners as well as court personnel towards advancing the idea and implementation of a complete e-filling system for all comp cases. As is often the case, the hard working officials at MWCC as well as attorneys who focus their practices on handling comp cases will continue to push towards an e-filling system in an effort to streamline comp cases in the magnolia state.
