SUPERIOR COURT COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO 247 West Third Street, Eleventh Floor San Bernardino, CA 92415 IN THE SUPERIOR COURT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR THE COUNTY OF SAN BERNARDINO IN RE: REJECTION OF DOCUMENT SUBMITTED FOR ELECTRONIC FILING DUE TO DEFICIENCY OF REQUIRED FEES GENERAL ORDER #GO26-029 GENERAL ORDER OF THE PRESIDING JUDGE A party who underpays the filing fee for a complaint or other first paper, where the payment has been made by check, is granted an additional 20 days from the mailing of notice of the deficiency to pay the filing fee and any administrative charge. (Code Civil Proc., § 411.20.) The Court desires to extend a similar grace period for electronically filed complaints or other first documents where the required fee is deficient. If the only reason an electronically submitted complaint or other first paper is not filed is because the required filing fee has not been paid, the court will send a notice of rejection of the document for filing to the electronic filer. From the date of the notice of rejection, the electronic filer will have 20 calendar days to cure that defect. If within that 20-day time period, the electronic filer makes the clerk’s office aware of the rejection due to insufficient fees by including the previous envelope number and/or eFile receipt number in the “filing comment box” along with the resubmission of the complaint or other first paper, the clerk’s office is directed to file the complaint or other first paper back to the original date of receipt. If any trial or other hearing is scheduled to be heard prior to the expiration of the 20-day period provided for, the documents shall be resubmitted, and the fee shall be paid prior to the trial or hearing. This order is effective January 1, 2026, and supersedes all previous general orders entitled Rejection of Document Submitted for Electronic Filing due to Deficiency of Required Fees. This order shall remain in effect until December 31, 2027. Dated this 1st day of January, 2026.
