For our Attorney Clients

R. B. “CHIPS” Shore announces the advent of a brand NEW and Simplified “One Button” E-Filing System.

Shore said, “It’s a breeze to use, even I can do it. It’s as easy as hitting the print button and printing a document”.

Beginning Friday, July 18, e-filing court documents will be a much simpler process. No more tedious multiple logins, case searching and selection – just type in your case number, attach your document and “e-file.”

AND

Even better you will be able to electronically initiate cases from your office. Simply fill out your “Civil Cover Sheet” and send it and your signed or “/s” document in by hitting “NEW CASE” and then browse to find the document, insert and add, then “e-file”. We will examine the filing, verify sufficient funds in your depository account then send you a confirmation and the case number.

For an existing case: Type up your document, sign it with the Supreme Court approved “/s”, save, file – done! You can file in existing cases or file a new case as above with no data input.

E-filing will be found on your subscriber page and ready to use. The site will also show you the status of your e-filings and store a complete record of your e-filing history.

Old links you saved to e-file will be disabled Friday, so you will need to log into the subscriber site (http://www.manateeclerk.org) to start. To look at how it will work, click the following link to view the simple instructions (http://www.manateeclerk.org/Portals/0/PDF/Instructions/E-File_Guide.pdf).

Coming soon

You will be able to E-record documents into our Official Records by using this same portal. E-recording of documents has now been statutorily approved. See Section 695.27 FS. We will also be adding credit and debit card options as well as EFT, for now please make sure your deposits with us are up to date. Thanks and happy e filing! – Chips
