CHARLOTTE — Ashe, Avery, and Watauga counties have adopted the eCourts system as of today, aiming to provide updated court case information online.
The eCourts system is designed to make it easier for people to access up-to-date details on court cases.
However, previous reports from Union County suggest that the system may cause delays and notification issues.
