As you may know, PACER announced that it will proceed with the scheduled price increase for PACER searches effective April 1st, 2012. Therefore, CourtAlert is in turn forced to adjust the CourtAlert for Pacer rate effective April 1st, 2012. Even with the new rates CourtAlert for Pacer is significantly less expensive than competing services.
We apologize for the need to increase the rate. Last year the Pacer price increase was delayed just before going into effect. While we were hoping this will happen this year, PACER has confirmed the April 1st date.
