Rule 14. Written Verifications and Unsworn Declarations Under Penalty of Perjury
However, nothing in this rule precludes the Arizona Supreme Court from modifying the requirements of this rule by administrative order.
(b) Alternative Verification. For those documents that require a verification under Rule 14(a), courts may accept for filing any of the documents without notarization if they are accompanied by a photocopy of the filer's driver license or other government-issued identification document. The applicant must redact a protected address and any sensitive data as defined by Rule 43.1(f)(1) from a driver license or other government-issued identification document. The clerk may maintain the photocopy of the license or other government-issued identification document as a confidential record and limit its availability as provided in Rule 43.1(f)(2)(B)(ii). If the alternative verification is attached to the document containing the signature, the Clerk must not maintain the document as a confidential record and must not limit its availability. A party filing a document with alternative verification attached must redact all sensitive data before filing, consistent with Rule 43.1(f)(2)(A).
