Federal
District Court for North Dakota
The Federal Court's manual for attorneys on the
use of the
electronic courtroom equipment is archived by BOC, here, for your convenience.
Effective January 1, 2006, the use of Electronic Case Filing (ECF)
was required in the district of North Dakota. Attorneys must
file papers electronically. Administrative policies
governing electronic filing are at
www.ndd.uscourts.gov/CMECF/CM_ECF-Policy.pdf.
Attorneys must ensure that sensitive personal identifiers are
redacted or omitted from any document that the user files with the Federal
Court, because the public does have remote electronic access. These prohibited
identifiers include:
Minors’ Names – unless only using only minor’s
initials.
Social Security Numbers – unless only using last four digits.
Dates of Birth – unless year of birth only is used.
Financial Account Numbers – unless only last four digits are
used.
Home Addresses – unless only city and state are used
