What is the definition of archiving in regard to e-Filing?
Archiving typically denotes some type of offline or near-online retention of files.In the case of a standard TexasOnline Electronic Filing arrangement, no archiving would take place.Documents are retained until court receipt, and then for a short period, typically ten days, thereafter.No long term, or archival, requirements are necessary.The court will use its own archiving strategy, as it does now with paper documents. A county could choose to independently contract with TexasOnline for archival or long-term retention functions.However, that contract would be outside of the Electronic Filing agreement and would be executed on a county-specific basis.
