From an audit conducted on the reliability of the data in the Office of the Assigned Counsel Plan (ACP) computer systems, it was found that the 18-B Web system has adequate controls over the assignment and scheduling of attorneys, while the FoxPro system has inadequate controls over the payments of cases. The 18-B Web system was designed to identify cases suspected of overbilling and double-billing, and there are instances of incorrect data and blank data fields. The FoxPro system was designed to process case vouchers and it lacks detailed information. Recommendations have been made to address these issues.
