To simplify a finding of No Probable Cause on offenses, the Deny Process button is available on the SUMMARY tab of Magistrate Orders, Fugitive Orders, and Orders based on Citations. When clicked, the usual requirement that Court Information be entered on these process types is waived, and the Summary Details screen will display with these differences:
o Domestic Violence/Victim Rights fields are removed.
o Probable Cause on all offenses will default to No. This cannot be changed unless the screen is cancelled.
o Date Issued and Issued By fields are replaced with Date Denied and Denied By. These fields are required.
o A Check Digit Number is not required.
Once the required denial fields are entered, click the Edit button. A File Number will be assigned and the process will be set to Denied status. Denied Magistrate Orders based on Citations will also transmit to ACIS.
