CASE DESIGNATED FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE COURT’S E-FILING
PROGRAM
The Superior Court is transitioning civil cases to an electronic filing system. Pursuant to
Administrative Order 2007-140,
IT IS ORDERED that all pleadings in this case be electronically filed.
The electronic filing system will be available for use immediately and mandatory e-filing
will commence effective immediately. Filing by conventional means may continue until this
mandatory date. ALL FILINGS NOT EFILED AFTER THE MANDATORY DATE WILL
NOT BE CONSIDERED BY THE DIVISION UNTIL PROPERLY EFILED. If service has not
yet been completed as to some or all of the Defendants, then it is the Plaintiff’s responsibility to
forward this minute entry to later appearing parties.
You may now choose to use the Clerk of Court hosted eFiling system, or one of the
Court’s qualified eFiling service providers to electronically file your pleadings. Please visit the
following web site for more information on your options for eFiling.
http://www.clerkofcourt.maricopa.gov/efiling/default.asp
To assist in the transition to eFiling, the Office of the Clerk of the Superior Court has
prepared instruction and training concerning the eFiling system. All parties and attorneys of
record in this case are strongly encouraged to study this material before the mandatory eFiling
date. The web site address for training materials is:

Additionally, please be sure to review the eFiling Guidelines set forth by Administrative
Order 2007-140 at the following web site address:
https://efiling.clerkofcourt.maricopa.gov/efilingguidelines
Upon the mandatory eFiling date, all attorneys of record shall eFile all pleadings in
accordance with the guidelines set forth in Administrative Order 2007-140. Self-represented
parties or pro per litigants, and other case participants like Mediators, Arbitrators, and Special
Discovery Masters are strongly encouraged to eFile all pleadings. If a self-represented party, or
other case participant chooses to file their pleading in paper, they shall include a notation just
under the case number on the first page of the pleading that the case is an “EFILE CASE”.
The eFiling system can be accessed from any computer that has an Internet connection.
Free internet access terminals are available in the Superior Court Law Library, and other public
locations such as most public libraries.
Where filing fees may incur on an electronic filing, they may be paid by credit card at the
time of filing if the filing party choose to use a qualified eFiling service provider. If the filing
party chooses to use the Clerk of Court's hosted eFiling system and the filing requires a fee, the
filing party is to pay at the time the document is efiled by calling 602-506-2565 to pay by phone
with a credit card or the fee is to be paid at the File Counter PRIOR to efiling a document that
requires a fee. Do NOT mail checks for filing fees to the Clerk’s Office. Bonds cannot be paid
by credit card. Documents will be rejected within two days if statutorily required fees are not
paid.
eFiled Orders from the Court will be distributed to attorneys in the same manner each
attorney has elected to receive Minute Entries from the Court. Attorneys may enroll with the
Clerk of the Court to receive their Minute Entries electronically via e-mail. The Minute Entry
Distribution Agreement form may be downloaded at:
