C.D. Ill. Civil LR 5.2
Eligibility, Registration, and Passwords
Each attorney admitted to practice in the Central District of Illinois must register for
electronic filing and obtain a password. Pro se parties are not required to register for
electronic filing but may apply to the Court for leave to file electronically. If a pro se party
is granted leave to do so, such party much register for electronic filing and obtain a
password. An attorney may apply to the assigned judge for permission to file papers
conventionally. Even if the assigned judge initially grants an attorney permission to file
papers conventionally, however, the assigned judge may withdraw that permission at any
time during the pendency of a case and require the attorney to file papers electronically
using the System. If a user comes to believe that the security of an existing password has
been compromised and that a threat to the System exists, the user must change his or her
password immediately. Additionally, if an attorney’s or pro se party’s email address,
mailing address, telephone number, or fax number changes after he or she registers for
electronic filing, he or she must file notice of this change within 14 days and serve a copy
of the notice on all other parties.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
