NOTICE OF COMMENCEMENT OF ACTION
SUBJECT TO MANDATORY ELECTRONIC FILING
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the matter captioned above has been commenced as an
electronically filed case in the New York State Courts Electronic Filing System (“NYSCEF”) as
required by CPLR § 2111 and Uniform Rule § 202.5-bb (MANDATORY ELECTRONIC FILING).
This notice is being served as required by that rule.
NYSCEF is designed for the electronic filing of documents with the County Clerk and the
court and for the electronic service of those documents, court documents, and court notices upon
counsel and unrepresented litigants who have consented to electronic filing.
Electronic filing offers significant benefits for attorneys and litigants, permitting papers to
be filed with the County Clerk and the court and served on other parties simply, conveniently, and
quickly. NYSCEF case documents are filed with the County Clerk and the court by filing on the
NYSCEF Website, which can be done at any time of the day or night on any day of the week. The
documents are served automatically on all consenting e-filers as soon as the document is uploaded
to the website, which sends out an immediate email notification of the filing.
The NYSCEF System charges no fees for filing, serving, or viewing the electronic case
record, nor does it charge any fees to print any filed documents. Normal filing fees must be paid,
but this can be done on-line.
Parties represented by an attorney: An attorney representing a party who is served with
this notice must either: 1) immediately record his or her representation within the e-filed matter on
the NYSCEF site; or 2) file the Notice of Opt-Out form with the clerk of the court where this action
is pending. Exemptions from mandatory e-filing are limited to attorneys who certify in good faith
that they lack the computer hardware and/or scanner and/or internet connection or that they lack
(along with all employees subject to their direction) the operational knowledge to comply with e-
filing requirements. [Section 202.5-bb(e)]
Parties not represented by an attorney: Unrepresented litigants are exempt from
efiling. They can serve and file documents in paper form and must be served with documents
in paper form. However, an unrepresented litigant may participate in e-filing. For information on
how to participate in e-filing, unrepresented litigants should contact the appropriate clerk in the
court where the action was filed or visit www.nycourts.gov/efileunrepresented. Unrepresented
litigants also are encouraged to visit www.nycourthelp.gov or contact the Help Center in the court
where the action was filed. An unrepresented litigant who consents to e-filing may cease
participation at any time. However, the other parties may continue to e-file their court documents in
the case.
