Description
Electronic filing in civil or criminal proceedings. Provides that clerks may charge a fee of $25 for civil or criminal proceedings filed electronically and an additional $10 fee for subsequent filings in such proceedings. The fee will be deposited into the clerk's local fund to cover operational expenses of the electronic filing system. The bill clarifies that clerks may provide official certificates and certified copies of records that contain personal identifying information electronically upon request of a party or attorney. The bill also confirms the clerks' authority to charge a fee for electronic notarization of $25 per notarization consistent with the fees allowed for notarization under Title 47.1 (Notaries and Out-of-State Commissioners) and raises from $5 to $25 the maximum fee per official certificate accompanying certified records.
