New alert for NYS Supreme electronically
filed cases:
As you are already aware NY
State is adding more and more cases to the NYSCEF system. We are happy to
report that CourtAlert will now have access to the NYSCEF system and will
forward you any updates as they happen. The procedure for receiving NYSCEF
filings is no different than any other case. Please put your case on the
watch list like you would normally do and CourtAlert will email you any new
NYSCEF entry.
As of now the state is
only providing the docket text and not the PDF file. If you need to get the
document you will still need to access it from the NYSCEF system, the alert will include the
appropriate link.
This new alert will be
known as CourtAlert 52. The regular watch service charges apply. No
additional fee is due for cases that are already on watch.
CourtAlert 52 can be used
in two main ways:
§
To
watch cases of interest.
§
As
a backup to the court NYSCEF system in the event the e-mail from the NYSCEF
fails to reach you.
As you know, the NYSCEF
system does not in any way reduces the need for CourtAlert watch as
calendars, judge assignments etc. are not recorded on NYSCEF.
CourtAlert provides Pre-RJI (“county clerk”) watch service in New York and Westchester counties and with this new alert
also for all other NYSECF counties, for electronically filed cases,
including all boroughs of New York City, Nassau and Suffolk. Therefore if you have an
electronically filed case in any of these counties, you may want to put the
case on watch even before an RJI has been filled, please use the Quick
Entry to add such cases to the watch list.
The Office of Courts
Administration will be providing the information to us at the very early
morning hours, for the prior day. CourtAlert 52 will automatically be
produced immediately thereafter.
We are Committed to Remain the
Best!
Thank You,
Izzy Schiller, President
CourtAlert
