PACER provides access to millions of case file documents and docket information for all district, bankruptcy, and appellate courts. These are available immediately after they have been electronically filed.  

Some case information is not available. Certain personal identifiers are removed or redacted before the record becomes public, including Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, the name of a minor, date of birth, and home addresses in a criminal case.  

Access to case information costs $0.10 per page. Depending on format, billable pages are calculated in two different ways. For HTML-formatted information, a billable page is calculated using a formula based on the number of bytes extracted (4,320 bytes = 1 billable page). For PDFs, the actual number of pages is counted (1 PDF page = 1 billable page). 

Users receive a statement quarterly by mail or email, depending on user preference. Fees are waived when usage is $30 or less for the quarter. Make a payment online or by phone (800) 676-6856 using VISA, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express. Checks may be mailed to the PACER Service Center, please include your account number to ensure that payment is posted to the correct account.
