Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The bill removes the requirement that orders be physically signed, reflecting current practice of digital signatures in e-filing. It also permits orders and other court records to be maintained by court clerks electronically. There is no additional cost as this is part of the new case management and e-filing system that is already within the existing budget.
