eFiling Training for Maine Attorneys and Staff (Non-Prosecutor)

Maine eCourts, including electronic filing (eFiling), will be implemented in all case types on Monday, September 28, 2026, in Judicial Region 2 (Cumberland County) courts. Once eFiling is implemented, attorneys and State and local government entities, except for law enforcement, will be required to use the eFileMaine system to electronically file documents in the following courts:
