If you are receiving too many emails from the court, there are a couple of steps you can take to reduce the number of email notifications that are sent to your address.
OPTION 1 – Elect to receive one email per day via a “Daily Summary Report” of ECF activity as opposed to a separate email for each docket entry.
-
Log on to CM/ECF
-
Click ‘Utilities’ to go to the utilities menu
-
Click ‘Maintain Your ECF Account’
-
At the bottom of the screen, press the [Email information] button
-
Click the circle beside “Send a Daily Summary Report”
-
When finished, click the [Return to Account screen] button
-
At the bottom of the screen, click the [Submit] button
-
Click [Submit] a final time to update your account
OPTION 2 – File a “Notice of Disinterest” in cases for which you no longer wish to receive email notifications.
-
Log on to CM/ECF
-
Click ‘Bankruptcy’ to go to the bankruptcy menu
-
Click ‘Notices’ to go to the notices menu
-
Enter your Case number
-
Select “Notice of Disinterest (Text Only Entry)”
-
Click [Next]
-
Follow the steps to complete filing of the Notice of Disinterest.
The Notice of Disinterest is a text-only entry. You do not have to prepare or attach a PDF document to this filing. After filing this notice, you will be removed from the email notification list for that particular case.
OPTION 3 – Check your account to see if there are cases listed in the "additional cases" box (cases in which you are not a party). If you no longer wish to receive email notifications in these additional cases, you can remove them from your account.
