The United States District Court for the District of Utah is testing a 
procedure in which a summons can be issued electronically. Currently the procedure is to either file everything (complaint, cover sheet, check, and summons) in person and have the clerk issue the summons or file nearly everything (complaint, cover sheet, and check) electronically and visit the court clerk for the issuance of the summons. According to U.S. Magistrate Judge David Nuffer, the court has been testing an “e-summons” procedure and form that looks like it may be implemented in 2009.
