Rule 16.404 Briefs

When you file a legal brief or memorandum with the court, you must submit it electronically. Paper copies are not the standard method anymore under this system.

This means attorneys and parties involved in a case need to use the court's electronic filing system to submit these documents. If you're preparing a brief to support a motion or argument, plan to file it online rather than dropping off or mailing a paper copy to the courthouse.

The rule keeps things simple by setting one clear expectation: briefs go through the electronic system. This helps keep court records consistent and makes documents easier to track and access for everyone involved in the case.
