For purposes of this MOU it also includes a brief or other document in an appellate case. It is the responsibility of the e-server to ensure all e-served documents are converted to a PDF file format that allows for full text searching, unless it cannot be created in that format. (Rules 2.256(b) & 8.76(a).)
