Conducting Business; Clerk’s Authority
(a) Regular Sessions of Court

(c) Text Only Docket Orders
The clerk of court may issue text only docket orders for any act within the clerk’s authority. A
text only docket order is an order electronically entered on the case docket without an attached
document and is as official and binding as if the clerk of court had signed a document containing
the text. If the one or more of the parties are unrepresented and do not file electronically, the
clerk of court will mail to those recipients a copy of the Notice of Electronic Filing of the text
only docket order.
