You
can learn the most about CM/ECF from the court's ECF User Manual, which
explains in simple, clear, step-by-step instructions how to: register, log
in, and use the full ECF system. You can download and print a revised copy of the Revised
ECF User manual
(4/16/03) for
yourself here.
This is a large PDF document, so please be patient as it downloads to your
system.
The manual has
been revised to reflect recent changes in the Local Rules and Standing
Orders of Court.
