Maryland File & ServeXpress • Official Judiciary EFSP & Service of Process Platform

Technology That Works with Maryland Courts

We partner with Maryland courts and judicial agencies to modernize how justice is administered. Through strict adherence to OASIS LegalXML ECF 5.0 and NIEM 4.0 standards, every submission arrives pre-validated, signed, and structured for immediate clerk docketing.

Connected eFiling integrates seamlessly with Tyler Odyssey EFM (`maryland-stage.tylertech.cloud`) to streamline intake, review, and docketing.
Automated `CourtPolicyMDE` and `CodeService` synchronization enforces court-specific case types, filing codes, and document rules.
Real-time `FilingAssemblyMDE` SOAP callbacks provide complete audit visibility from initial submission to clerk acceptance.
Rule 20-201 redaction compliance and X.509 cryptographic non-repudiation protect sensitive judicial records.

Streamlined eFiling & Fee Waivers for State Agencies

Maryland state agencies, prosecutors, and municipal departments rely on high-volume, zero-friction filing workflows with built-in government fee waiver accounts and automated docket tracking.

Dedicated Government Waiver Payment Account management (`POST /api/firm/payments` & `/api/firm/payments/global`).
Centralized multi-user role administration (`FirmAdmin`, `Filer`, `Attorney`) via `EFMFirmService`.
Automated case tracking and service contact lookup across all 24 Maryland counties and Baltimore City.

File, Serve, and Track Every Case in Under 2 Minutes

Built for Maryland litigation teams, paralegals, and process servers—combining Green Filing simplicity, InfoTrack case synchronization, and ABC Legal service of process speed.

One-screen eFiling Workbench with drag-and-drop PDF Base64 encoding and instant sample pleading generation.
Complete Maryland Bar Attorney roster and global Service Contact registry management.
Live SOAP/REST transaction inspector for complete transparency on every court submission.
