E-Filing

Court users are mandated to e-file. However, we understand that this might be difficult if you do not have access to the internet, a scanner, or if your documents are not downloaded on your computer. Here are a few tips if you do have internet access.

1. Download the form you are looking to file from the SCAO website.
2. Once you download the form, open the form and fill in with your case information. You will need to electronically sign this document by inputting /S/ and your typed out name.
3. Re-save this document once all information is filled in.
4. Sign onto Mifile.
5. File your document with the court through the MiFile portal. Below are instructions for the different Courts:
   • 20th Circuit Court
   • 58th District Court
   • 20th Circuit Court (Español)

If you are unable to download the appropriate form you wish to use or you are unable to scan the document you have already obtained, please download the following form MC100 – request for exemption. Please mail in your documents with this form and payment, if one is required, and once the Judge reviews and signs the order, the clerk’s office will file your documents. If the Judge denies your request for any reason, we will contact you to let you know that your paperwork was not filed and that you have to e-file.
