1. i just saw that too :(

wtf? can they still file even thought the court is closed?

2. I don't think so.

The clerk of courts has to accept the paperwork.

4. I would LOVE to be wrong

but just copying what's on the site.

Can they file electronically and get it entered today?

[ohio_liberal]

10. Ah, maybe

I didn't look at the site until just now. Maybe they can file it electronically. I see they have something set up to pay the filing fees as well as file the documents.

3. Federal or State?

U.S. District Court is Federal. I think what is going to be filed today is with the State Supreme Court.

6. I stand corrected

It is the same court they are filing that is closed :(

9. It appears they CAN file electronically?

From your link Faye, the Menu shows "Electronic Case Filing Log-In". Maybe that's what they'll do?

14. Any news on this yet Will?

Are they filing electronically today, or will it have to wait until possibly tomorrow - weather permitting?

If you answered on another thread, my apologies - haven't found it yet.
