What happens once the document is filed electronically?
• ECF will send a receipt to the filer verifying that the document has been received. • ECF will file the document and automatically update the docket sheet. • ECF will send, by email, a notice of the filing to all parties who have agreed to receive electronic notices. • The email notification will contain a hyperlink to an electronically filed document. If the document number is hyperlinked, you may click on it to receive your one time free access to the document. Since electronic notices are sent whenever there is case activity, you may receive a notification that does not contain a hyperlink to a document. In these instances, the document does not exist in electronic form.
