[2]Query whether we may always need to maintain paper filing options for pro se litigants. Computers are available at public libraries, but that may not be available enough for Mr. Gideon scrawling a habeas corpus petition. Establishing technological restrictions on access to courts may give rise to problems founded in constitutional law and public policy.
[3]Misadressed mail would be treated as it usually is in electronic mail systems: it is returned to the sender if the sender can be identified, and if the sender cannot be identified, it is forwarded to a user designated the "postmaster," so that manual inquiries can be made to correct the problem.
[4]Folio is the courts' choice for document presentation because it is already in extensive use in all Utah courts and would not require less additional software and training. It is also a de facto state standard for text search and presentation and is a high-quality product for which extensive support is readily available.

Since the Utah judiciary would receive no benefit from supporting other legal research products, including support for them would have to be accomplished without adversely impacting court resources.
