New CM/ECF Event- Proposed Order

Friday, November 19, 2010

Effective Friday, November 19, 2010, if you need to file a proposed order AFTER a motion or request for hearing has been filed, please use the event, "Proposed Order", instead of the event, " Attachment". No additional text is required. This event is located in the " Other" category. Please relate the proposed order to the appropriate motion or hearing.

There is no change to the process of attaching a proposed order WITH a motion or request for hearing. Please be sure to use the description, "Proposed Order" from the list of pre-defined attachments. No further description is needed.

This change is being made to easily identify proposed orders filed after the motion or request for hearing to facilitate the electronic processing of orders.

As a reminder, please follow these guidelines for filing proposed orders.

  • Every motion should be accompanied by a proposed order.
  • The title of the order should match the title of the motion and be consistent with one of the events in the motion category, as outlined in the Administrative Procedures for Electronic Filing.
  • Please do not add the word " Proposed" to the title of the PDF.

If you a have any questions, please call our ECF Help Desk at 312-408-7765
