What technical expertise is required of judges and their staff in order to use the CM/ECF system?
CM/ECF is easy to learn and requires little technical experience to use. Familiarity with using Windows and a web browser are the basic technical skills needed. Although judges and their staff can quite easily learn to run queries, run reports, make docket entries and file documents, the court could adopt processes under which the Clerk’s Office would perform these tasks for some or all chambers.
