| Background: | DIMS has existed since 1994. It is a 24-hour 7 days per week process which allows prosecutors to screen criminal cases presented by law enforcement officers to determine whether prosecution will be pursued within hours of the commission of the offense and within hours of the person's arrest instead of weeks or month's after a person's arrest. It is an innovative program which utilizes technology and prosecutor resources to efficiently and quickly address prosecutorial decisions on cases presented to DIMS within hours of a person's arrest. |
| Fiscal Impact: | Account for FY19 will be set up if awarded and approved by Commissioners Court.
Account for FY18: GDADIMSP18-4302000
