Managing Users
The Users page lets you view all registered users, assign roles, link court staff to specific courts, and activate or deactivate accounts.
Viewing Users
Navigate to Admin > Users to see a searchable table of all users. You can search by email address and filter by:
Role -- Filter to a specific role (e.g., Clerk, Attorney)
Court -- Filter to users assigned to a specific court
Status -- Filter to Active, Inactive, or All users
User Roles
Every user has exactly one role. Roles determine what parts of the system a user can access.
Filer Roles
Attorney
Licensed attorney who files on behalf of clients. Must have a bar number
Pro Se
Self-represented litigant filing on their own behalf. Assigned a system-generated PIN
Org Admin
Administrator for a filing organization (e.g., law firm). Can manage organization members
Government
Government agency filer (e.g., District Attorney's office)
Court Staff Roles
Clerk
Reviews and processes filings in the clerk queue. Must be assigned to a court
Judge
Judicial officer. Can view filings routed for judicial approval
Judicial Staff
Staff supporting a judge. Same access as Judge role
Court Admin
Full administrative access. Can configure courts, users, fees, queues, and all other settings
Court staff roles (Clerk, Judge, Judicial Staff, Court Admin) should be assigned to a court. Without a court assignment, staff users cannot see filings in their queue.
Editing a User
Click the pencil icon on a user row.
In the edit dialog, you can change:
Role -- Select the user's role from the dropdown
Assigned Court -- Link the user to a court, or select "No court assigned" to remove the assignment
Click Update.
You cannot change your own role. This prevents accidentally locking yourself out of the Admin Panel.
Activating and Deactivating Users
Use the Active toggle switch on each user row to activate or deactivate an account.
Deactivated users cannot log in or access any part of the system
Reactivating a user restores their access with the same role and court assignment
You cannot deactivate your own account.
How Users Are Created
User accounts are created through the registration and onboarding flow, not directly from the Admin Panel. When a new user registers:
They create an account via the login page
They complete the onboarding form (role selection, bar number, contact info)
Their account appears in the Users table
As an admin, your job is to verify the user's role is correct, assign court staff to the appropriate court, and deactivate any accounts that should not have access.
