CM/ECF

CM/ECF stands for Case Management/Electronic Case Files. It is an electronic filing system used by federal courts in the United States to manage legal documents and case information. Instead of submitting paper filings, attorneys and the public can file documents online, track case progress, and access court records easily. This digital system enhances efficiency, reduces paper usage, and provides a more organized way to handle legal proceedings, ensuring that all parties have access to the same information in a timely manner.
