Passwords

Once the ECF Registration Form has been processed, the E-Filer will receive notification of the E-Filer’s initial login and password. As further explained in the ECF User Manual, upon receipt of his or her initial password, an E-Filer should select a new password known only to that attorney. An E-Filer shall protect the security of the E-Filer’s password since the ability to access an attorney’s ECF account to effectuate an electronic filing is equivalent to providing that attorney’s personal signature under Rule 11.
