PACER Access Different from ECF Access
U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee
Text
With limited exceptions (e.g., Social Security and ERISA cases), a person may retrieve information from the ECF System through the court’s Internet Web site by obtaining a PACER (“Public Access to Court Electronic Records”) login and password. While only registered E-Filers may file documents using the ECF System, any person, whether a registered E-Filer or not, who has PACER access may retrieve docket sheets and documents in civil and criminal cases.
