Faxing to Florida Supreme Court — FAQ
The clerk's fax line is 850-414-1246. Before sending anything, confirm with the clerk's office that the document you have may be filed by fax rather than through the eFiling Portal.
The court relies on its eFiling Portal for the bulk of filings. Fax is generally limited to emergency motions or situations where electronic filing cannot be used, so review the court's rules for your specific document.
A fax received before midnight on the due date is typically treated as filed that day, but some procedural rules tie timeliness to close of business. Check the applicable rule and keep your transmission record as proof of when the court received the document.
Put the case number at the top of every page. If a sheet gets separated from the rest, the case number is what allows the clerk to reunite it with your filing.
