The Superior Court of California, County of San Diego, is working with One Legal as its electronic filing services provider (EFSP) to bring E-Filing and E-Service to the Court. The E-Filing gateway is projected to be available for select cases beginning Fall of 2012. While the system will eventually bring efficiencies to the court that will allow it to reallocate resources to other activities and meet budget needs, it will also bring significant benefits to filers.

E-Filing initially will be restricted to cases assigned by the Court for E-Filing in the Central Division. The Court intends to increase the number of cases enabled for E-Filing in other Civil or Probate Divisions using a phased approach.

An Attorney's Experience with E-Filing and E-Service

"E-Filing and E-Service are both services our firm did not use until this year.  However, one of our cases transferred to the Complex Division of the Santa Ana Superior Court where E-Filing is required.  As it turned out, we have voluminous documents which must be filed and served on a weekly basis.  We have found that service by email of large documents is very convenient for counsel and can save costs.  The documents do not have to be copied for opposing counsel and can be served directly by email on all counsel.  You obtain confirmation that service is completed and don’t have to worry whether counsel is in or out of the office, whether the messenger is late, etc."

-Anabella Q. Bonfa, Attorney at Law

Benefits to Filers

E-Filing provides a direct link between the filer and the Court. Benefits include:

  • 24-hour/7-day-a-week access to E-Filing,
  • No need to budget extra time for a messenger,
  • eFiled documents take less time for the Court to process,
  • Security and control of documents,
  • Concurrent E-Service within the same order,
  • Lower cost compared to some other methods of filing.
