The time it takes to transmit or receive a document depends primarily upon the users Internet Service Provider (ISP), the users modem speed, and the type of pdf file being transmitted or received. A text pdf file can be transmitted or received 15 to 20 times faster than a pdf file created by the scanning of a paper document. Occasionally an ECF user may perceive the transmission time as slow. However, when compared to the time required to create, copy and deliver paper documents (via mail or hand delivery), plus the delay while court staff reviews and dockets the pleading, CM/ECF significantly reduces the time between pleading preparation and its inclusion in the case record.
