Idaho courts extend Thursday e-filing deadlines to 5 p.m. Friday; Boise city email delayed

BOISE - The Idaho Supreme Court has extended statewide electronic filing deadlines for court documents that were due Thursday, Nov. 12. A Nov. 12 court order says the File and Serve system may be unavailable to users on Thursday, Nov. 12, and that any document due to be electronically filed that day will be deemed timely filed if submitted before 5:00 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 13.

The court's news release said the extension was in response to a third-party software outage affecting certain email clients, and that Idaho's File & Serve system serves court documents over email. Filers meeting the order's timeline have no need to submit individual requests for relief, the release said, citing the order.

Separately, a notice on the City of Boise website says a nationwide Microsoft outage is impacting city email and other Microsoft services, and that email responses may be delayed until service is restored. A Nov. 12 notice on the city's permits portal says staff are currently unable to access, send or receive emails.
