The term "eFiling" refers to an electronic filing system. An eFiling system is a robust system designed to streamline Court filings. When documents are eFiled, the Clerk's Office will approve the filings and route the documents to the Judge and support staff, and electronically serve interested parties on the case.
Benefits for attorneys include saving time and money, in addition to:
Cost savings (paper, parking, courier fees)
Ability to file outside of regular business hours
Better use of resources
Instant access to filings
Electronic service to other registered users
No. It is free to set up an account in our eFiling system. The system does not charge a usage fee. The only fees incurred would be a third party vendor fee of 2.25% if you choose to use a credit card or eCheck for payment. Attorneys and firms may sign up for an Escrow Account to use with eFiling to avoid the third party transaction fee.
Yes. The following cannot be E-Filed:
Publication Notice
Original Wills
Proposed Orders should be submitted in Microsoft Word format (doc,docx). All other documents must be submitted in an unprotected-PDF format.
24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Nothing changes. All trial exhibits will be presented at trial.
Yes, per Judge-signed Order. Select the "sealed" checkbox when you are uploading the document.
When filing under seal documents, you must use conventional service.
In the event the eFlex system is unavailable, E-Filer agrees that time-sensitive documents should be conventionally filed with the Clerk during normal office business hours in order to meet any applicable statutes.
At the Court's discretion, the provisions of T.R.C.P. 6.01 may apply to the extent the Clerk's Office is inaccessible due to unavailability of the eFlex system.
