Court Filings: Time to Sign Out of the Signature Requirement?
By John Derrick
Apparently, clerks at downtown Los Angeles Superior Court have been known to refuse to file documents signed in black ink. The reason, the story goes, is that â in their minds â only blue signatures constitute "originals."
That may be an apocryphal tale. But it wouldn’t surprise me if it were true.
