Case Opening: Adding Additional Attorneys

 

You can enter additional attorneys associated with this case by selecting the Add icon that is located next to Attorney in the Participant Tree.

NOTE:  You can only add additional attorneys that are registered with CM/ECF, not Pro Hac Vice Attorneys.

 

The Search for an Attorney screen appears in the right pane. Enter either the attorney’s bar ID number or name and then select Search.


As with the Party Search screen, you will see search results which allow you to select the attorney’s name from the dropdown list. Choose the attorney from the dropdown list and click Select Attorney.

The Attorney Information screen displays.  Accept the information and click Add Attorney.

 

This will bring you back to the Search for an Attorney screen. The newly added attorney appears in the Participant Tree.

Repeat this process until you get all the associated attorneys entered.  You can then proceed to:

  • Add an Alias.
  • Continue adding parties to your new case by selecting Add New Party .
