RULE 614
ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES

Where a rule of court requires that a pleading, motion, or other paper be signed by the party or the party's attorney, the document may be signed using "s/ [typed name of person]," a signature stamp, or a scanned or other electronic version of the person's signature, except in cases where an original signature is required by law, such as an affidavit. Regardless of form, the signature shall act as a certificate that the person has read the document; that to the best of the person's knowledge, information, and belief there is good ground to support it; and that the document is not interposed for delay.
