If the state’s new electronic-filing system for court documents were a person, it might be asking, “Who am I?” Partly because of a trademark-infringement suit, TexFile.com will become eFileTexas.gov on Dec. 6.
Tyler Technologies Inc., which operates the system, faces a federal lawsuit by a company called TexasFile that claims that TexFile’s name, logo and website infringe on its trademarks. Launched in 2006, TexasFile provides online access to many types of official records from 180 different Texas counties.
