In the Courthouse

Digital Dockets

Digital Docket Screens provided to us by the Supreme Court of Virginia allows visitors to the courthouse to find out in what courtroom and at what time their case is being heard.

Phones & Mobile Devices

At this time Loudoun County does not allow devices with cameras into the courthouse. Exceptions may be made for attorneys in good standing with the Loudoun County Bar Association.

Online Services

The Clerk of the Circuit Court’s Office offers many applications that allow our attorney customers to work remotely.

Virginia Judiciary E-Filing System (VJEFS)

This system, for use by members of the Virginia State Bar and their designated staff, allows a civil case to be opened electronically. Additionally, documents may be filed electronically in those civil cases opened using the VJEFS system in participating circuit courts throughout the state.

Benefits of the system include the ability to submit and track online case submissions, receive status and other notifications by email, request service of process, and the ability to calculate and pay fees online.

Effective June 1, 2023, once a responsive pleading has been filed, the Clerk’s office will notify receipt of an e-filed case. If a case is sealed or a responsive pleading has been filed pro se, the case must be removed from VJEFS per the rules of the Supreme Court.  If the opposing attorney does not want to e-file, a case initiated through VJEFS will have to be removed unless the attorney does not object to the case continuing in VJEFS.

Virginia Judiciary E-Filing System (VJEFS) has more information on participating circuit courts, registering, and instructions on how to use the system.

If you’re ready to register your firm, simply fill out a Registration Application (PDF) and submit it electronically.

Loudoun Officer of the Court Remote Access (LOCRA)

For use by members of the Virginia State Bar and their designated staff, this system allows users to view, print or save images of case files remotely. In Loudoun, this service only costs you $10 a month. Our LOCRA page has more information on how to subscribe and what's available.
