Electronic filing standards activity is chugging right along. The newly-formed OASIS LegalXML Court Filing Technical Committee has its first face-to-face meeting later this week in Salt Lake City. Several items are on the agenda, including review of the CourtFiling 1.1 specification; the Court Document 1.1 Draft Standard; a Query and Response Draft Standard; and the Draft Court Policy Interface Requirements, as well as updates on a variety of additional issues.

In an encouraging SOAP development, one company announced today an "open source" bundle of software designed to handle the collection and management of LegalXML filings. The company, counterclaim, states that "The user interface is built around servlet/JSP technology and implemented using the Jetty JSP engine and using Apache's Struts and Tiles UI architecture. Filings can be accepted via HTTPS or SOAP over HTTPS." The company plans to maintain an open development list.
