The Legislature and the NYSCEF regulations have thus far provided that NYSCEF can be used in commercial, tort and tax certiorari cases in Albany, Monroe, Westchester, New York, Bronx, Kings, Queens, Richmond, Nassau, Suffolk, Erie, Niagara, Essex, Onondaga and Sullivan counties; in Broome county, all cases in supreme court may be eligible for filing by electronic means treatment; cases in the Court of Claims as designated by the Court of Claims and the New York State Attorney General’s Office; and cases in the Surrogate’s Court in Erie County. The Erie County Surrogate’s Court will be using a type of automated filing function for probate cases, but it is not yet set up to receive a full NYSCEF case.
