(c) Any pleading or document filed electronically shall include the electronic signature of the person filing the pleading or document as defined in Code Section 10-12-2 .

Date: __________________ Electronic Signature: __________________" (e) Service of any claim or complaint filed electronically shall be made as provided by law.
