The Connecticut Judicial Branch will implement mandatory electronic filing in Connecticut state superior courts in all civil cases by December 5, 2009. The Judicial Branch is also going paperless for short calendar and notices will no longer be sent by paper in the mail (unless the firm or litigant is exempt) starting September 1, 2009.
The mandatory e-filing will be implemented in phases as follows:
E-filing will be available in all remaining civil cases (with few exceptions) starting August 22, 2009.
E-filing is mandatory in all foreclosure cases starting September 1, 2009.
E-filing is mandatory in all remaining civil cases starting December 5, 2009.
Law firms and attorneys can receive e-filing training in each judicial district.
E-filing will be mandatory starting December in Connecticut in both state superior and federal district courts unless a law firm or litigant qualifies for an exemption.
