CM/ECF NextGen
The Northern District of Illinois has implemented the Federal Judiciary's Next Generation (NextGen) Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) system. It is critically important that each NextGen user must have their own individual PACER account. Specifically, this means that a firm with one shared PACER login account must register each user with their own unique individual PACER account and password. If you currently share a PACER login within your firm, you must register for your own PACER login. To register for your own PACER account, visit this
website
.
If you have a PACER account that was created prior to August 2014 (Legacy PACER Account) and have not been upgraded (PACER id is only 6 characters long), you must upgrade your legacy PACER account. Please click
here
for instructions to upgrade your PACER account.
If you need assistance with your PACER account, you can contact the PACER service center at 1-800-676-6856 (8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Central Standard Time), Monday-Friday or email:
[email protected]
