Public access to the Southern District of New York’s case information is provided through a service of the Unites States Judiciary called PACER. PACER is an acronym for Public Access to Court Electronic Records and, it permits account holders to view documents that have been filed within the Court’s Electronic Case Filing (ECF) System. It also permits the public to query this database for a particular individual, case name, and other case information.
PACER provides access to the case summary, docket entries, and copies of documents filed in federal cases. If a paper document is needed, or if a case cannot be located when searching by case number, party name, or using the U.S. Party Case Index (USPCI ) then contact the Court to request a court record.
Rulings of Special Interest are published at the discretion of the court.
