REQUEST TO ADD ATTORNEY
OR AMEND ATTORNEY INFORMATION

in MassCourts, BasCOT-Civil, BasCOT-Criminal & WMS
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ATTORNEYS ABOUT THIS FORM – PLEASE READ
The computerized case processing systems used in some District Court divisions (BasCOT-Civil for civil cases, and either MassCourts, BasCOT-Criminal or WMS
for criminal cases) are periodically updated with name and business address information for Massachusetts attorneys sent electronically from the Board of Bar
Overseers (BBO).
MASSACHUSETTS ATTORNEY INFORMATION. This form permits you to update name or business address information for a Massachusetts attorney on these
computer systems until the next electronic update of attorney information is received from the BBO. It is essential that Massachusetts attorneys report address
changes to the BBO within 30 days (as required by SJC Rule 4:02), and petitions for name changes to the clerk of the Supreme Judicial Court for Suffolk
County, since any changes made by submitting this form will be overridden by the next electronic update of attorney information from the BBO. (In
the case of MassCourts, changes made by submitting this form will remain in the system for 14 days and thereafter will be overridden by the next electronic update
of attorney information from the BBO.) Attorneys may now report both business and residential address changes to the BBO online at
http://www.state.ma.us/obcbbo/bboreg/address.htm or by fax to the BBO at (617) 728-8856. Please note that these computer systems do not currently record
multiple business addresses for an attorney. An attorney’s address must be the same as that attorney’s business address on file with the BBO.
OUT-OF-STATE ATTORNEYS & RULE 3:03 or 3:04 LAW STUDENTS. This form may also be used to add to these computer systems an out-of-state attorney
(i.e., one not registered with the Massachusetts BBO) who has been admitted pro hac vice (for a particular case) by a judge, or a law student who represents a
party under S.J.C. Rules 3:03 or 3:04. AOTC’s Information Services Department will assign these a special number (beginning with the letter “F” for foreign
attorneys, and “S” for law students) for use in these systems, in lieu of a Massachusetts BBO number. “F” and “S” listings will not be affected by subsequent BBO
updates for Massachusetts attorneys.

Add newly-admitted Massachusetts attorney. Please add the above Massachusetts attorney who is newly registered or reactivated with the
Massachusetts BBO and does not currently appear in the attorney table in one or more of these computer systems. The attorney has been informed
that this addition is temporary, and will subsequently be overridden by the next electronic update of attorney information from the BBO.
