The term “”legal holiday”” means those days on which State of Florida government offices are closed for legal holiday as provided by Section 110.117, Florida Statutes.
(3) “”File”” means to submit required documents to the division in the Tallahassee, Florida, office via ground mail, airmail, facsimile, e-mail, or other means, so long as the division actually receives the filing and has the equipment and software necessary to view and review the filing.
(4) “”Filing”” means the documents required to be submitted to the division pursuant to Sections 718.502, 718.503 or 718.504, Florida Statutes.

(7) “”Received”” or “”receipt”” by the division refers to the date on which the division or department actually receives a filing or documents related to a filing. If a filing is delivered to the division via facsimile or e-mail, the facsimile or e-mail confirmation sheet shall be evidence of the date on which the division received the filing. If the filing is delivered to the division via ground mail, airmail, or overnight service, the carrier’s delivery receipt shall be evidence of the date on which the division received the filing.
