A court document may be certified as an official copy only if the original document is on file with the court. In addition to manually certifying documents with a handwritten signature, any custodian of a court document may also use an electronic signature and seal to certify or authenticate documents that are in electronic format. A raised seal on the copy from the issuing court shall not be required.
