The regular business hours of the Clerk’s Office are 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday (excluding Federal Holidays). The drop box/document depository may be used for filing before the Clerk’s Office opens at 8:30 a.m. and after the office closes at 4:30 p.m. The box is located at the south entrance of the Cleveland Building.

Documents deposited without a date and time stamp will be deemed filed on the date the documents are collected by court staff.

Documents, not just the envelope, must be date/time stamped.

Follow the instructions below to stamp and file your documents:

1. Insert the document you are filing into the top opening. Push until you feel the date and time stamp being applied.
2. Verify the document has a legible date and time stamp. If it is not legible, stamp again on the reverse side of the document.
3. Place the document (and applicable fee, not cash) in an envelope and deposit in the "document depository" opening.
