Filing Petition for Injunction Online


A Petitioner, also referred to as a self–represented litigant, may choose to electronically file a Petition for Injunction using the statewide e–Filing Portal. You may access the Portal 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to file a Petition. 

E–filing is not required in order to file a Petition for Injunction. The Clerk's Office accepts paper filings during regularly scheduled business hours.

What You Will Need to Begin e-Filing
  • A valid email address and regular access to email to receive electronically filed documents. 
  • Access to a computer with an internet connection.
  • Documents to be filed must be in Microsoft Word 97 (or higher), WordPerfect or Adobe PDF.
  • If filing to an existing case, the case number you are filing to.
Accessing the Portal
  • Go to the Portal website at www.myflcourtaccess.com.
  • Click on the Register Now! link. The Portal will guide you through the registration process. Select Self-Represented Litigant as your role.
  • Once you are a registered user, enter your Username and Password to login to the Portal. 
Filing Your Petition
  • When you login to the Portal, the e–Filing map will display. Select the filing jurisdiction, then select New or Existing case. Click File New.
  • Enter the information as required on each tab. Use the Next button to move from tab to tab.

After filing your Petition through the Portal, you will receive two emails: One email confirming the Petition is submitted and a second email when the Petition is accepted.
