Attention: Attorneys Ordering Transcripts from Court Reporters
Once the transcript is released by the Court Reporter, attorneys who are registered ECF Users MUST first log in to CM/ECF, click on the Docket Sheet Report and login to PACER before they are able to view the transcript prior to the public release of the transcript. Logging directly into PACER will NOT allow attorneys access to a non-public transcript. PACER must see the attorney as an ECF User.
The electronic transcript is released only to the attorney ordering the transcript, not the firm or other attorneys on the case. Only the CM/ECF login and password for the attorney ordering the transcript can be used to access the electronic transcript prior to the public release date.
Attorneys Ordering Transcripts who are not registered ECF Users will not be able to access a transcript electronically prior to the public release of the transcript.
