In Texas, e-filing is required for all criminal and civil matters, as well as appeals supported at the District and County Court levels.
Note: Clio File supports direct cancellation for Texas filings. If you identify a mistake after submission, you can stop the filing process within the platform, provided the court status is still pending.
Clio File is currently available in all California state courts that offer e-filing, except San Francisco.
Note: Self-serve cancellation is not currently available for California filings. If you need to cancel a submission in this jurisdiction, please contact Clio Support immediately for assistance.
