Welcome to Electronic Case Filing 101 Version
2
The Electronic Case Filing (ECF) Tutorial is designed for attorneys and law firm staff interested in learning how to use the CM/ECF system. Through guided practice, using simulated CM/ECF screens and actions, you will learn how to file pleadings and other materials using the CM/ECF system.
The tutorial is divided into four modules, each of which contains sections that guide you through specific CM/ECF functions for civil and criminal filings.
If
you are a new CM/ECF user, you should begin with 1: Orientation and continue
to the end of 5: Miscellaneous. This is a self-paced tutorial: at any
point you can bookmark your place and return when and where it is convenient
to you. The entire tutorial will take you about one hour to complete.
