What happens to paper cases during optional period?

Problem

At the VBA Annual Meeting, the Rules panel stated that during the optional period, everyone can file paper cases and those cases will remain paper-based. This is incorrect.

Solution

Add a FAQ on this topic. In actuality, the courts are scanning all paper-based cases. When the optional period ends, SRLs can continue to file paper on the case, but attorneys must electronically file.
