Background:
Ordinance 1075-2012 approved by Columbus City Council on June 4, 2012, authorized the Franklin County Municipal Court, Clerk of Court (“ Municipal Court Clerk”) to enter into a one year contract with four consecutive one year renewal options with CoreVault, Inc. for remote data back-up and recovery services.

These services provide data back-up, recovery from data loss, and a comprehensive disaster recovery system for viable data restoral for the Franklin County Municipal Court.
