Local Rule Civil Rule 58.1: Entry of Court-Issued Document
S.D. Cal. — Civil rule
Civil Rule 58.1 Entry of Court-Issued Document All orders, decrees, judgments, and proceedings of the Court will be filed in the Electronic Filing System, which will constitute entry on the docket kept by the Clerk under Fed. R. Civ. P. 58 and 79. Any order or other court-issued document filed electronically without the original signature of a judge or Clerk has the same force and effect as if the judge or Clerk had signed a paper copy of the order and it had been entered on the docket in a conventional manner. Orders may also be issued as "text-only" entries on the docket, without an attached document. Such orders are official and binding.
