Sec. 1. Scope. Pursuant to the provisions of Section 4-4 of the Connecticut Practice Book, the following procedures are established by the Office of the Chief Court Administrator for filing by facsimile transmission pleadings, documents or other papers to be filed with the court. Sec. 2. Facsimile Transmission of Pleadings, Documents and Other Papers (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, any pleading, document or other paper to be filed with the court, may be filed by facsimile transmission. This section shall not apply to any pleadings, documents or other papers which commence an action, to any filings which must be accompanied by any fee or other payment, to criminal summonses and complaints, Uniform Arrest Reports, arrest reports, bond forms and seized property inventories, or to requests, applications, petitions and other documents pertaining to restraining orders. (b) Except for short calendar markings, any pleading, document or other paper filed by facsimile transmission shall be accompanied by a Facsimile Transmission Cover Sheet, form JD-CL-73, prescribed by the Office of the Chief Court Administrator. Such filings shall not exceed twenty pages, including the cover sheet, unless otherwise directed by the court. (c) An attorney or party who files any pleading, document or other paper by facsimile transmission shall cause the transmitting facsimile machine to print a transmission record of each transmission. The transmission record shall be retained by the sending attorney or party. If the facsimile document is not filed with the court as set out in subsection (e) herein because of an error in transmission, the occurrence of which was unknown to the sender, or because of a failure to process the facsimile document when received by the court, the sender may move for an order to allow the filing of the document as deemed appropriate by the court. The motion shall be accompanied by the transmission record, a copy of the document transmitted, and an affidavit of transmission. (d) The facsimile transmission received by the clerk shall be deemed the original and shall be considered signed for purposes of Section 4-2 of the Practice Book. The attorney or party who files any pleading, document or other paper by facsimile transmission shall retain a signed copy of the pleading, document or other paper during the pendency of the action, any appeal period and any applicable appellate process. The copy retained by the attorney or party shall contain a certification signed by the attorney or party indicating that the document is a true copy of the document that was transmitted by facsimile to the clerk. The attorney or party shall produce the signed copy upon request of the Court. Upon failure to produce the document, the Court may take any action and impose any sanction it deems appropriate. (e) Facsimile transmission shall be complete upon receipt of the entire document by the clerk. Facsimile transmissions completed after the normal business hours of the court shall be deemed to have been filed on the next court day. The date of filing shall be as recorded on the document by the clerk. (f) If the facsimile document exceeds the twenty page limit, is incomplete as transmitted, is faxed to the wrong court or is otherwise not in compliance with the requirements of this section, the clerk shall not file the transmitted document, but shall destroy it and return the cover sheet to the sender with a statement as to why the document was not filed.
