A new document filing option is available in the Minnesota eFile & eServe (eFS) system.  This new option permits filers in specific court locations (see below) to file proposed order documents in a Microsoft Word version in addition to the required PDF version.  This change is a result of the electronic enhancements that are part of the continued efforts of the Minnesota Judicial Branch to move toward a fully electronic case file. 

Please note:  Word documents submitted through the eFS system must have a .docx extension.  Those with a .doc extension cannot be accepted.  Documents created in Microsoft Word 2007 or newer will provide the necessary .docx document extension.

Locations and dates:
 

• Rice County:  January 7, 2016
• Scott County:  October 21, 2016
• Morrison County:  October 28, 2016
• Hennepin County Juvenile Division:  November 3, 2016
• Ramsey County Civil Division:  November 10, 2016
• NEW Freeborn County:  January 9, 2017
• NEW Steele County:  January 9, 2017

This filing option is expected to be made available in additional court locations throughout 2017 as automated workflow is rolled out statewide.
