The Courts Digital Transformation Phase 1 will roll out October 14, 2025, in the Toronto region for Superior Court of Justice Family proceedings, Civil Proceedings, Small Claims Court proceedings, Divisional Court proceedings and Enforcement, and Ontario Court of Justice family proceedings.
To support this transition, the Justice Services Online (JSO) portal will stop accepting filings for Toronto courts at 5:00 p.m. on October 3, 2025. Between October 4 and October 13, online filings will not be available for Toronto matters. For urgent or time sensitive filings, documents may be filed in person at the courthouses with expanded hours (8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.) or submitted by email.
