1. Registration

  1. To register to file electronically with our court, you must request admission via your PACER account and complete any assigned training if required by the court. If you are currently registered to use CM/ECF in another U.S. Bankruptcy or U.S. District Court, you must still register to use CM/ECF at the U.S. Bankruptcy Court - Middle District of North Carolina.
  2. Upon requesting admission and completing any required training by the court, a properly registered attorney admitted to practice in this court may become a Filing User. A Filing User is defined by the Local Bankruptcy Rules as a person who has been granted admission to file documents electronically with the court.
  3. Once registered, a Filing User may withdraw from participation in the system. Upon the receipt by the Clerks Office of a request to withdraw from participation the participant’s account will be locked.

2. Passwords

  1. A Filing User must protect and secure their PACER login and password. If there is any reason to suspect the password has been compromised in any way, it is the duty and responsibility of the Filing User to immediately notify the court. This should include the resignation or reassignment of the person with authority to use the account. The attorney/participant should change their password immediately.
  2. It is strongly recommended that each Filing User periodically change his or her password for security reasons
