ADVERTISEMENTS

Registration for Appellate ECF is separate from and in addition to registering for PACER. PACER registration grants you access to view docket reports and documents from a court's database, while ECF registration will enable you to file documents electronically. If you're a current PACER user, you are required to complete a separate additional appellate court ECF registration form to request appellate filing privileges.  The following circuits are accepting ECF registrations for purposes of electronic filing and/or to permit access by case participants to certain restricted case types: U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th, 6th, and 8th circuits.

Register for a new Appellate ECF account (if you have not registered in any circuit).

Register in an additional circuit (if you already have registered for ECF in at least one circuit) and wish to register in another circuit, check the status of a pending request, or update your account.
