Documents and where they go at the Ohio Supreme Court
A matter reaches the Ohio Supreme Court on a petition for review or a writ application, followed by briefing on the court's schedule. The court decides which cases to hear, and the parties brief the issues once review is granted. Fax comes in for a courtesy copy for opposing counsel or correspondence with the clerk — where those recipients accept it.
When fax is party-to-party at the Ohio Supreme Court
The everyday faxing tied to the Ohio Supreme Court tends to run between law offices and parties rather than to the clerk. A process server, co-counsel, or a client may ask for a document by fax rather than by email. For those, online fax sends the document without a machine and returns a delivery confirmation to keep with the file.

Faxing to Supreme Court of Ohio — FAQ
Ask the clerk's office at the Ohio Supreme Court for its working fax before you send. Use the court's local rules and clerk's-office page, which state how documents are submitted today. Verifying the office and the line up front is the honest shortcut.
No. A faxed document is not how something gets filed at the Ohio Supreme Court. Counsel files through the system, and the clerk's office tells a self-represented filer how to submit a document. Reserve fax for the parties and offices that confirm they take it, and keep filings electronic.
The Clerk of the Court's office is the contact point for non-filing business at the Ohio Supreme Court. A records request typically needs the case number and the specific documents you want. Verify the line at the court's own contact page rather than a third-party listing.
Put the case caption and case number on the cover sheet and on every page. Address the cover sheet to the correct office at the Ohio Supreme Court or the party, with a number staff can call. A delivery confirmation then tells you the fax reached the office.
