Utah E-Filing

E-Filing to the Utah Courts

This page contains links to useful information about how court patrons can prepare to electronically file documents with the court, which courts are participating, and what types of filings will be allowed.

E-Filing will be available in Utah State Courts for filings on Civil and Criminal cases beginning in 2009. Initially, filings will be restricted to selected courts in the 2nd and 3rd Judicial Districts, and to certain case types. Private documents and filings on sealed cases will not be allowed. Throughout 2009, additional courts will begin accepting e-filed documents, and the range of filing types will be expanded as well.

In order to participate, attorneys must either build an interface to the courts’ system using the Application Program Interface (API) described, or contract with an Electronic Filing Service Provider (EFSP) to provide this interface.

The E-Filing Getting Started Guide contains information about court rules, definitions, communication, and privacy. This guide also contains the Non-Disclosure agreement required of all EFSPs and filers building an interface to the system.

The E-Filing Integration Guide contains information about the Application Program Interface (API) for those wishing more detailed information about building a system to submit electronic filings to the court.
