OJIN information is organized in the following hierarchy:
-
By court location
-
By court type (C-Circuit or D-District). Although circuit and district courts merged effective 1/15/1998 into a single-tier trial court called circuit court, some pending cases are tied to the old district courts.
-
By case class, case type, and case number.
