RI Supreme Court to Convert to the Odyssey E-Filing System on January 29, 2021


According to an email from the Rhode Island Supreme Court clerk's office, on June 19, 2020, the Supreme Court issued an order amending Article I of the Supreme Court Rules of Appellate Procedure. The amendments made significant changes to the formatting required for papers filed with the Court and made procedural changes necessary for the implementation of electronic filing in the Supreme Court. The June 19 order provides that “[t]he amendments relating to electronic filing shall take effect upon the date that the Supreme Court converts to the electronic filing system.” 
 
In an order issued on Thursday, December 31, 2020, the Court announced that the electronic filing system will be available for filing papers in the Supreme Court on January 29, 2021 and that the Supreme Court Rules regarding electronic filing become effective on that date.
