What is the Case Tab?

A case tab is a view only tab for users to be able to easily view the information related to a case. They are able to see the current ASA, Judge, Arrest Date, Next hearing, agency report number, current charges, linked cases, etc. all from one screen instead of going through multiple tabs of a case.

The same information that is available on the Case Tab is also easily seen on the Case Card. To access the Case Card simply select the Case number hyperlink seen throughout STAC.
