A 2013 standing order requiring attorneys to e-file family-law and civil documents (no paper filings accepted) as the court began compliance with the Supreme Court's e-filing mandate; criminal filing unchanged. Orders submitted for signature must carry the e-mail addresses of all parties to be notified and counsel must keep their electronic mailboxes able to receive the clerks' transmissions.
Applies to filings in the Hidalgo County county court at law no 8; posted on the county's e-Filing page. A 2013 instrument: the statewide e-filing rules adopted since govern current practice — read it as the court's own e-filing order of record.
JUDGE ROLANDO CANTU, COUNTY COURT AT LAW #8 — 100 N. Closner, Judicial Annex, Edinburg, Texas 78539 STANDING ORDER In efforts to begin compliance with the Texas Supreme Court Mandate regarding E-Filing, County Court at Law No. 8 is issuing the following order: Beginning December 2, 2013, County Court at Law No. 8 will require attorneys to E-File all documents relating to Family Law cases with the District Clerk, and Civil Law cases with the County Clerk. NO PAPER FILING WILL BE ACCEPTED. It is further ordered that all orders submitted to this Court for consideration and/or signature shall contain valid e-mail addresses of all parties requiring notification at the bottom of each instrument. All counsel, whether retained or appointed, shall be responsible for ensuring their electronic post office boxes are adequate to handle all documents that will be sent electronically by making certain that: (1) Their e-mail service provider does not limit the size of attachments, and (2) The District and County Clerks' transmissions are not blocked. Failure of counsel to maintain their personal contact information, or failure of counsel to ensure their electronic post office boxes are adequate to handle all documents emailed to them by the District/County clerk, shall not serve as good cause on a complaint for lack of notice. Filing of documents for all criminal law cases will continue as is currently in place. HON. ROLANDO CANTU, PRESIDING JUDGE (signed; undated on its face).
