Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Florida

Procedural
I received a summons in a civil case. My questions are twofold. When I reply to the plaintiffs Attorney can I file a copy of my answer to the clerk of the involved court by mail with the appropriate fee(if any)? When I send a request for production of documents to the Plaintiffs Attorney does a copy of that request also have to be filed with the clerk of the involved court?

Re: Procedural

You must file your Answer in the clerk's office of the court. You can mail it or deliver it in hand.

There is no fee charged for filing an answer.

Most courts will not accept for filing a request for

production of documents. They simply do not have space for all the paper. Ask the clerk at the desk or check the rules which apply in your court.
