Filing electronically will ensure the security and confidentiality of the information reported in your statement, because it will not have to be mailed. CourtNet uses a private wide area network protected by sophisticated firewalls, intrusion detection devices and anti-virus software to protect your financial disclosure statements. In addition, once you file electronically once, filing in subsequent years becomes easier, since you have the option of copying previous reporting year information, to save or to amend, without repeating the same information each year.
