Each attorney/trustee who wishes to electronically file pleadings or other papers must complete and sign a Registration Form. An attorney/trustee's password issued by the court combined with the user's identification (login), serves as and constitutes the attorney/trustee's signature. Therefore, an attorney/trustee must protect and secure the password issued by the court. If there is any reason to suspect the password has been compromised in any way or in instances of a resignation or reassignment of the person with authority to use the password, it is the duty and responsibility of the attorney/trustee to ensure the password is deactivated. The court is not be responsible for maintaining user passwords. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 and Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9011, every pleading, motion and other paper (except creditor lists, schedules, statements or amendments thereto) shall be signed by at least one attorney of record or, if the party is not represented by an attorney, all papers shall be signed by the party. The electronic filing of a petition, pleading, motion, or other paper by an attorney or trustee who is a registered participant in the Electronic Filing System shall constitute the signature of that attorney or trustee under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 and Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9011. I understand that it is my responsibility to pay any and all fees for transactions made in the Electronic Case Filing System in accordance with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court's Fee Schedule and Administrative Procedures, and failure to do so may result in temporary loss of my ability to file documents electronically. Registration as a Filing User constitutes: (1) consent to receive notice electronically and waiver of the right to receive notice by first class mail pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 5(b)(2)(D) and Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 7005; (2) consent to electronic service and waiver of the right to service by personal service or first class mail pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 5(b)(2)(D) and Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 7005, except with regard to service of a summons and complaint. Waiver of service and notice by first class mail applies to notice of the entry of an order or judgment. Notice by electronic means is complete as set forth in the Administrative Procedures notwithstanding Federal Rule of Bankruptcy Procedure 9036. A filing user accesses court information through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records ("PACER") Service Center. Although the court manages the procedures for electronic filing, all electronic public access to case file documents occurs through PACER. A PACER login is required to access online court information. To register for PACER, a user must complete the online form or submit a registration form which is available on the PACER web site (http://pacer.psc.uscourts.gov).
