Signatures

a. Registered Participant Signature. The user log-in and password required to submit documents to the CM/ECF system serve as the Registered Participant’s signature on all electronic documents filed with the Court. b. Signature of a Criminal Defendant. A document containing the signature of a criminal defendant must be scanned in a format that contains an image of the signature. c. Signatures of Non-Registered Participants. A document containing the signature of a Non-Registered Participant is filed electronically.

The signature is represented by a “s/” and the name typed in the space where a signature would otherwise appear or as a scanned image. d. Documents Requiring Multiple Signatures. Documents requiring signatures of more than one party are electronically filed by either: 1. Submitting a scanned document containing all the necessary signatures; or 2. Representing the consent of the other parties on the document.
