Unless you've been living under a very remote rock, or been stuck in a museum exhibit for a long time,
00:07
you know that we live in the digital age.
00:10
Everything is e-something.
00:12
E-mail, e-cigarettes, e-bay, e-harmony.
00:15
And the courts of our great land are no different.
00:18
E-filing and e-service have become more than a novelty in the legal system.
00:22
They are crucial components.
00:24
And in the case of e-filing, mandatory.
00:28
In 2012, Florida began requiring every court document, in nearly all types of civil cases and beyond, to be e-filed.
00:36
This is done through the Florida Courts e-filing portal at www.myflcourtaccess.com.
00:43
There are practical reasons for mandating e-filing in the court system.
00:47
Before the internet, filing papers with the court meant either mailing them or going down to the court,
00:52
waiting in line, and making sure it got stamped with the correct date.
00:55
However, if the deadline was fast approaching, regular mail would not do.
01:00
And, like now, you could only hand-deliver them during the hours court is open.
01:05
Now, with e-filing, you don't have to leave your couch.
01:08
Plus, it's considered filed once you receive your online confirmation.
01:12
And you have until midnight on the day it is due to get done.
01:15
Perfect for the procrastinating night owl.
01:18
Now, service, which is where every document is sent to every party involved in a case,
01:23
is also subjected to the same pre-internet problems as filing.
01:27
Today, though, you can send documents to all the parties through e-mail.
01:31
It's faster, easier, and cheaper than printing everything out and sealing them in envelopes.
01:36
However, there are rules for how e-mails should be presented and formatted.
01:40
Check with the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration for the right information.
01:45
Or, just have LegalYou worry about these details for you.
01:48
It's kind of our thing.
