Correct Answer

A. Created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means.

Detailed Explanation

The statute separately defines the medium used in electronic practice. Executive Law §135-c(1)(c) says an electronic record is information created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means. Not to be confused with a broader "record," an electronic record focuses on the electronic mode.
