Linda:
Thank you so much for the information on e-filing. I was recently told by someone that they heard that the court caption that usually goes on the top right side of the first page of a court document will now have to be moved to the left side. Can you advise me if you know anything about that. Thank you.

Hi Robin… this is from the clerk’s FAQ…. they want you to leave a space at the top right hand corner for the time/date stamp… I think as long as that space is left you are good to go….
Q: Are there any special requirements for documents?
A: Documents should be a standard size of 8 ½ x 11 inches (as defined in RJA 2.520). Documents should leave blank a 3 x 3 inch space at the top right-hand corner on the first page, and a 1 x 3 inch space at the top right-hand corner on each subsequent page, to accommodate statewide standard date/time stamps (as defined in RJA 2.520). Where possible, documents should be electronically signed. Black and white, non-color documents are preferred. Scanned documents should be at a resolution of 300 DPI (as defined in the State of Florida Electronic Records and Records Management Practices).
Does anyone know the answer to this? I am reading above about the 3×3 inch space at the top right-hand corner on the first page, etc. Doesn’t this only apply to filings that are going to be recorded in the Public Records? That is how I am reading it, but I am not sure. RJA 2.520 refers only to Public Records filings. Anxious to hear some answers about this. Thanks.
The official answer is “Documents should leave a blank 3×3 space at the top right hand corner on the first page and a 1×3 inch space on each subsequent page to accomodate statewide standard date/time stamps… The thinking is that this refers to documents being recorded not e-filed… and most people I know do not leave the space at the top of regular e-filed pleadings and have never had a problem… the confusion was brought up at the last efiling meeting and I think they will clarify that soon
