Demystifying Electronic Filing - A CM/ECF Primer

with Pamela J. Starr of STARRParalegals, LLC.

When a document has been filed electronically, the official record is the electronic recording of the document stored by Federal Court, and the filing party is bound by the document as filed.  Accuracy is key and understanding the rules is critical.

Join us Wednesday, March 23, 2011, at 12:00 noon ET and learn the basics and components of filing documents and pleadings electronically in the Federal Court system. Avoid many of the common pitfalls causing “technical failures” that result in unnecessary delays.

During her presentation, you will learn: 

• How to file electronic attachments and exhibits
  

• How to upload/submit proposed orders electronically

• The basics of Pacer and CM/ECF
