If you click on the case number link, it will display the Docket Report. Find out if your court is using NextGen CM/ECF. NOTE: As courts convert to the NextGen CM/ECF system, you will only use one login for both PACER and CM/ECF. Always enter your CM/ECF credentials for CurrentGen courts and PACER credentials for NextGen courts. If the document is for certain case types (e.g., a restricted, Social Security, or immigration case), the system will prompt you to log in. Contact the court if you have questions or need the notification email resent. If you click the link after it has expired or after the first use, you will need to enter your PACER credentials and will be charged to view the document.

You should print or save the document during the initial viewing period. The link expires after the first use or 15 days, whichever is first. Attorneys may list multiple email addresses for their filer login so that interested parties can be notified of filings as well. Each attorney of record in a case will receive an email from the court containing a hyperlink to a document that has been filed and can be accessed the first time for free.
