Local Rule AP 6.2: Registration
D.N.H. — General rule
6.2 Registration
(a) PACER. Filing Users manage access to the court's ECF system through their individual PACER account.
(b) Log-In/Password Usage. No Filing User or other person may knowingly permit or cause to permit a Filing User's password to be used by anyone other than an authorized agent of the Filing User, such as a designated ECF filing assistant. The use of a Filing User's log-in and password by another attorney or other authorized agent shall be deemed to be the act of the Filing User.
(c) Obligation to Protect Password. Filing Users must change their password if they learn that the security of their PACER password has been compromised.
(d) Obligation to Update Information. A Filing User has an obligation to update the Filing User's PACER account with any change in the following information: name; mailing address; firm name or affiliation; primary email address or primary telephone number. If participating in an active ECF case, a Filing User shall also provide written notice of such change through the use of the "Notice of Change of Address" event in ECF in each active case. Filing Users are also obligated to ensure that the email addresses associated with their accounts are correct and able to successfully accept notices from the court. The court is not responsible for notices that are rejected by a Filing User's primary and/or secondary email address.
(e) Withdrawal as Registered User. Once registered, an attorney of record in an active ECF case may withdraw from participating in the ECF system only upon motion in that case. Otherwise, an attorney may withdraw from participating in this court's ECF system through their PACER account. An attorney's withdrawal from participation in the ECF system will not be construed as authorization for the attorney to file cases or documents conventionally unless so authorized by court order.
