Important
Court requirements vary by jurisdiction. Always confirm the clerk's fax number, accepted file formats, and cover sheet requirements before sending. FaxItOnce provides delivery confirmation but cannot guarantee court acceptance of filings.
Why Do Courts Still Require Fax?
Despite the shift toward electronic filing systems, many courts, clerks' offices, and legal professionals still rely on fax for document transmission. Here is why:
Legal Record
Courts require timestamped delivery proof for filed documents. Fax provides an automatic, verifiable record of exactly when a document was received.
Filing Deadlines
Fax provides instant transmission for time-sensitive filings. When a deadline is hours away, fax delivers immediately with confirmation.
Chain of Custody
Fax creates a verifiable delivery trail from sender to recipient. This chain of custody is recognized by courts as reliable evidence of transmission.
Universal Acceptance
Every courthouse clerk's office has a fax number. Fax is the one method that works with every court, regardless of their technology infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do courts accept faxed documents?
Many courts still accept faxed filings, particularly for time-sensitive motions, responses, and clerk communications. However, acceptance varies by jurisdiction and court. Always check with the specific clerk's office to confirm they accept fax submissions before sending.
Can I fax a motion to the court?
Yes, if the court accepts fax filings. Upload your motion as a PDF, enter the clerk's fax number, and send for $2.75. FaxItOnce provides delivery confirmation so you have a record of when the document was received.
Is a fax considered proof of filing?
Fax delivery confirmation shows that a document was received by the destination fax machine at a specific time. Whether this constitutes proof of filing depends on the court's rules.
