I hear the term “link” frequently when discussing electronic filing – what does it mean?
A. To “link” a document means to relate it to, or associate it with a previously filed document. During the filing process you may be asked “Does your document relate to a previously filed pleading?” If the answer is yes, you should follow the screen prompts to “link” the documents. Proper linkage allows a judge, or any other person looking at a document, to view all pleadings related to it, such as objections, certificates of service, etc. If a document isn’t linked properly it may not display on the judge’s calendar. If you need help with linking please contact the Help Desk.
