Answer to Question 1

 The Electronic File. Through electronic case filing, courts can realize dramatic increases in efficiency and reductions in related costs in clerical staff alone. Electronic filing also enables some court services such as the payment of fines and fees, collection of fines and penalties, providing case information and documents to the public, and jury management to be centralized or regionalized for improved efficiency and service. In addition, an electronic case file enables a court to better distribute its workload across the system.

Answer to Question 2

 A low-flying UAV could patrol a given stretch of road, looking for high-speed offenders; images could be sent to a monitor in a patrol car along with the vehicle's rate of speed, direction of travel, and GPS coordinates, which can be map overlaid for the officer on the ground.
 Could also provide real-time reconnaissance, surveillance, and target-spotting in a variety of situations.
 Civil libertarians have raised questions about the potential for UAV use to violate citizens' rights.
