Under Local Rule 3118, the Riverside County Superior Court will transition to mandatory electronic filing (eFiling) for parties represented by counsel in limited and unlimited civil actions, including unlawful detainers cases, on Jan. 1, according to press release from the court.
Electronic filing in limited and unlimited civil actions, including unlawful detainers cases and small claims, is optional for self-represented litigants and not required (California Rules of Court, rule 2.253(b)(2)).
Approved electronic filing service providers for civil can be found on the court’s website at www.riverside.courts.ca.gov/FormsFiling/EFiling/eFiling-service-providers.php
Effective Jan. 1, the Court’s eSubmit electronic document portal will no longer be available for the submission of documents
