Can the general public view CM/ECF cases and the documents in those cases using the internet? |
The public can access civil case data in CM/ECF unless it has been sealed by the court. Access over the internet to documents filed in criminal cases is limited to case participants, i.e., attorneys and defendants. To have access to case dockets and electronic documents using the internet, you must have an account in the Public Access to Electronic Records (PACER) system. |
