Does anyone know what it means on the Maryland Judiciary Case Search website what SCHG (status change) "D225;A TO T" means?
Assume Active to ??? What's the D stand for?
Searched the MJCS FAQ's & can't find it.
Thanks in advance.
It is sad but true, that the Courts have willfully and purposely programed the public access Court records in a confusing way just to hide the info from the public view.
The only reason that the "Case Search" website exist is that the MD High Court is trying to pull the lower Courts out of the dark-ages and it is a hard job to do.
And if anyone goes to the local Courthouse the public computer for searching cases is so utterly confusing that it is obviously programed to hide the info from public viewing.
The Courts say it is open to the public because the law requires it, and then the Courts make the info nearly impossible to view or to find.
Like instead of a "Search" button the person must hit the "F5" and there is no way of knowing that until one of the Court Clerks come out to instruct each user, and the Clerks make it known that it is not their jobs to be giving such instructions so figuring out what to do after the "F5" is just as confused and so on it goes.
And the Court Clerks will tell us that they do not know how to improve the system when even a grade school operator knows how to do the simplest of programing so that a system is easier to use.
In St. Mary's County the last election we had a candidate for Court Clerk that ran on the platform of improving the Court's computer access system but instead the status quo candidate won the election and she is determined to keep the SMC Court and the public in the dark-ages for as long as possible.
So it is not an accident that the system is impossible to interpret because it is designed that way.
Way to slam a door on someones head!
