Is electronic filing being implemented at the appellate court level?
Yes. The North Carolina Appellate Courts are currently accepting electronic documents, such as petitions, briefs, responses, etc., via the Internet. Attorneys must convert their documents into PDF (Portable Document Format) before submitting them to the court. Files are stored in a document library and are available to the public online. Division Two of the Arizona Court of Appeals Court uses E-filer to process electronically submitted files.
