Value Added Services for eLitigation

ELECTRONIC SERVICE OF DOCUMENTS

The Electronic Service of Documents (e-serve) allows non-subscribing law firms or litigants-in-person to serve court documents on other registered law firms (subscribers) electronically via the eLitigation system. Documents which are accepted for filing and e-served are deemed to be in compliance with Order 63A of the Rules of Court. A certificate of service will be automatically generated by the system.
