Rule 5.09 - FORMAT OF DOCUMENTS(a) All electronically filed pleadings shall, to the extent practicable, be formatted in accordance with the applicable Rules governing formatting of paper pleadings. Additionally, each electronically filed pleading and document shall include the case title, case number and the nature of the filing.(b) Each electronically filed document shall also include the typed name, email address, address, and telephone number of the attorney or pro se party filing such document. Attorneys shall include their DuPage County Attorney Number on all documents.(c) Documents must be converted to PDF directly from the program creating the document, rather than from the scanned image of a paper document. Documents only in paper format may be scanned and converted to PDF for electronic filing.(d) In as much as technology changes, the maximum file size allowable is available in the vendor's user manual. If a document exceeds the maximum size allowed, the filer will file multiple documents, each under the maximum file size. In such case, the user will be responsible for dividing the document into appropriately sized parts and placing a cover page on each document providing the case number, case title, and part number (i.e., 1 of 4, 2 of 4, etc.). Exhibits filed separate from their associated document must use the exhibit cover sheet defined in Rule 5.06(b).(e) Any electronically filed document must be unalterable (PDF) and be able to be printed with the same contents and formats as if printed from its authoring program. The e-filing vendor is required to make each electronically filed document that is not infected by a virus available for transmission to the Clerk immediately after successful receipt and virus checking of the document.(f) Bulk filings of multiple cases or multiple documents combined into one PDF document shall not be accepted. Documents with different case numbers must be filed individually in separate transactions. Filing of individual documents within the same case will be accepted in a single electronic filing transaction.(g) Documents not complying with the format specified by the applicable statute, local rule, or standards may be rejected.(h) Electronic documents containing links to material either within the filed document or external to the filed document are for convenience purposes only. The external material behind the link is not considered part of the filing or the basic record.Ill. R. Cir. Ct. Dupage Cnty. 5.09
