Frequently Asked Questions Is e-Filing required for Colusa Superior Court? At this time, e-Filing is permissive and not required for all litigants. Filings may also be filed by mail or in person at the Clerk’s Office during regular business hours. How does e-Filing work? Electronic filing or e-filing enables filers and courts to efficiently process documents and fees online. E-filing manages the flow of information among filers, clerks, court personnel and judges. The filer submits documents by establishing an account with an Electronic Filing Service Provider (EFSP). How do I select an Electronic Filing Service Provider to use? You may select any EFSP available. The court does not endorse any specific EFSP. When reviewing the various EFSP’s, keep in mind that most offer do-it-yourself and concierge services for filing. Additionally, the services and fees vary by each provider. Once you select an EFSP, you will be able to go through their tutorial on how to eFile. If you encounter technical issues with eFiling, please contact your preferred EFSP for assistance. Is e-Filing secure? Yes. The e-filing system adheres to state and federal security regulations and meets Payment Card Industry Security Standards to protect filer and transaction information. Do I have to register to use e-File? Yes, all users must register with an Electronic Filing Service Provider (EFSP) prior to using e-filing. Once you select the EFSP you wish to use, follow the steps to register an account. How will I be notified if an e-Filing is accepted or rejected? Each EFSP may offer different type of e-filing notifications. When you pick your EFSP look at their specific support notifications. Is support available for the e-File system? Yes, support is provided for both attorneys and self-represented litigants. Each EFSP offers a different type of e-filing support. When you pick your EFSP look at the level of filing support that is offered and see if it meets your needs. Who can I speak with if I have questions about an electronic filing? The first point of contact for any question should be your EFSP. If the question cannot be resolved with the EFSP, you may contact the clerk’s office. What if I have a document that requires a judge’s signature? The document that requires a signature must be its own lead document. Any letter or cover sheet accompanying the document must be submitted under a separate filing code as its own lead document. Signed judicial orders will be placed in a pick up box, unless the filer submits a SASE to return the document. Can Judicial Council forms be e-Filed? Yes. Judicial Council forms are fillable and can be uploaded for e-Filing. What format do I have to save my documents in? PDF, however some EFSPs allow you to file as a Word document because they then turn it into a PDF for you. Can I upload all documents together or should they be separated? Documents should be filed as you would file them at the clerk window. For instance, a document that would have been stapled together at filing should be filed as one lead document. Another way to think about it is that anything that needs its own file stamp should be filed separately, as a lead document that gets its own separate event code. Multiple documents can be filed together in one envelope but each document to be filed needs its own event code. Can I cancel a submission? Submissions cannot be cancelled after they have been completed in the EFSP. Please double check your documents and any data entry prior to completing your submission. What is e-Service? E-service is a feature provided by efileCA where documents are electronically served to other parties in a case via e-mail. Using this option, you can track when each party received and opened the filing. How do I serve other individuals with my e-Filed documents? Filers are responsible for accomplishing service of all filings as required by applicable court rules. Filers may use the mail service, serve by hand delivery, send an e-mail, or use eFileCA as it offers the option of electronic service of each filing to the designated service contact. If I file electronically, have I consented to electronic service on this case? Yes, refer to California Rules of Court, Rule 2.251(b)(1)(B).
