Accessibility

Every person in Chesterfield should have access to our court. Amanda is running to increase the availability of services for those who are unable to access the Circuit Court during the workday.

The number one priority voters in Chesterfield have shared with Amanda is the need for e-filing. E-filing and electronic receipt of information reduces errors, increases efficiency, and makes the Court more accessible.

Transparency
