Riverside County Superior Local Rule Change

Riverside County Superior Court's Cross-Court Filing Program To Be Eliminated 7/1/09

Effective July 1, 2009, the court’s cross-court filing program will be eliminated.

Documents must be filed at the courthouse where a case is pending. Parties may elect to directly fax file documents at the correct court location pursuant to California Rules of Court, Rule 2.304.

Parties electing to directly fax file documents will be charged a fax registration fee of $100 for fiscal year 2009-10 to fax an unlimited number of pages. Please complete the Direct Fax Filing Registration form (RI-M01) to sign up for the fax-filing program. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover may be used to pay the $100 registration fee for the fax-filing program.

Attorneys are encouraged to establish an account with the court from which the registration, and other fees, may be paid.

A Judicial Council 'Facsimile Transmission Cover Sheet' must accompany each facsimile filing.

The completed Direct Fax Filing Registration form may be submitted either in person at the clerk’s office, by fax or by mail. If dropping off in person at the clerk’s office, the form should be provided to the clerk’s office where the majority of documents will be filed. If the form is submitted by fax, it should be faxed to the court location where the majority of documents will be filed. Fax numbers are located below. If the form is submitted by mail, it should be mailed to the court location where the majority of documents will be filed. For mailing addresses click here.
Fax filing phone numbers are at the court's web site: http://riverside.courts.ca.gov/faxlist.htm

(Note: An updated and expanded list of direct fax filing numbers will be provided in June 2009).
