CASE OPENING NOTICE
Issued: April 23, 2012
The above-captioned appeal was docketed in this court today pursuant to Rule 12 of the
Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure. The above case number and caption should be used on all
papers subsequently submitted to this court. If any party disagrees with the clerk’s office’s
designation of the parties on appeal, it must file a motion to amend the caption with any
supporting documentation attached. Absent an order granting such a motion, the parties are
directed to use the above caption on all pleadings related to this case.
Appellant must complete and return the following forms to the clerk’s office by May 7,
2012 to be deemed timely filed:
Appearance Form
Transcript Report/Order Form (Please carefully read the instructions for completing and
filing this form.)
Docketing Statement
These forms are available on the court’s website at www.ca1.uscourts.gov, under “Forms
& Notices.” Failure to comply with the deadlines set by the court may result in dismissal of the
appeal for lack of diligent prosecution. See 1st Cir. R. 3.0, 10.0, and 45.0.
Upon confirmation by the circuit clerk that the record is complete either because no
hearing was held, no transcript is necessary, or the transcript is on file, the clerk’s office will set
the briefing schedule and forward a scheduling notice to the parties.
Within seven days of filing the notice of appeal, appellant must pay the filing fee to the
district court clerk. An indigent appellant who seeks to appeal in forma pauperis must file a
motion and financial affidavit in the district court in compliance with Fed. R. App. P. 24. Unless
this court is provided with notice of paying the filing fee to the clerk of the district court or filing
a motion seeking in forma pauperis status within fourteen days of the date of this notice, this
appeal may be dismissed for lack of prosecution. 1st Cir. R. 3.0(b).
An appearance form should be completed and returned immediately by any attorney who
wishes to file pleadings in this court. 1st Cir. R. 12.0(a) and 46.0(a)(2). Pro se parties are not
required to file an appearance form. Any attorney who has not been admitted to practice before
the First Circuit Court of Appeals must submit an application and fee for admission with the
appearance form. 1st Cir. R. 46.0(a)(2).
Dockets, opinions, rules, forms, attorney admission applications, the court calendar and
general notices can be obtained from the court’s website at www.ca1.uscourts.gov. Your

NOTICE OF ELECTRONIC AVAILABILITY OF CASE INFORMATION
The First Circuit has implemented the Federal Judiciary’s Case Management/Electronic
Case Files System (“CM/ECF”) which permits documents to be filed electronically. In addition,
most documents filed in paper are scanned and attached to the docket. In social security and
immigration cases, members of the general public have remote electronic access through
PACER only to opinions, orders, judgments or other dispositions of the court. Otherwise, public
filings on the court’s docket are remotely available to the general public through PACER.
Accordingly, parties should not include in their public filings (including attachments or
appendices) information that is too private or sensitive to be posted on the internet.
Specifically, Fed. R. App. P. 25(a)(5), Fed. R. Bank. P. 9037, Fed. R. Civ. P. 5.2 and
Fed. R. Cr. P. 49.1 require that parties not include, or partially redact where inclusion is
necessary, the following personal data identifiers from documents filed with the court unless an
exemption applies:
Social Security or Taxpayer Identification Numbers. If an individual’s social security
or taxpayer identification number must be included, only the last four digits of that
number should be used.
Names of Minor Children. If the involvement of a minor child must be mentioned, only
the initials of that child should be used.
Dates of Birth. If an individual’s date of birth must be included, only the year should be
used.
Financial Account Numbers. If financial account numbers are relevant, only the last
four digits of these numbers should be used.
Home Addresses in Criminal Cases. If a home address must be included, only the city
and state should be listed.
See also Rule 12 of this court’s Administrative Order Regarding Case Management/Electronic
Case Files System.
If the caption of the case contains any of the personal data identifiers listed above, the
parties should file a motion to amend caption to redact the identifier.
Parties should exercise caution in including other sensitive personal data in their filings,
such as personal identifying numbers, medical records, employment history, individual financial
information, proprietary or trade secret information, information regarding an individual’s
cooperation with the government, information regarding the victim of any criminal activity,
national security information, and sensitive security information as described in 49 U.S.C. §
114.
Attorneys are urged to share this notice with their clients so that an informed decision
can be made about inclusion of sensitive information. The clerk will not review filings for
redaction. Filers are advised that it is the experience of this court that failure to comply with
redaction requirements is most apt to occur in attachments, addenda, or appendices, and, thus,
special attention should be given to them. For further information, including a list of exemptions
from the redaction requirement, see http://www.privacy.uscourts.gov/.

NOTICE TO COUNSEL REGARDING
MANDATORY REGISTRATION AND TRAINING
FOR ELECTRONIC FILING (CM/ECF)
Beginning January 1, 2010, CM/ECF is mandatory for all attorneys filing in this court.
Therefore, we strongly encourage all attorneys who practice in this court to register as an ECF
Filer as soon as possible and become familiar with the system. Before you may file documents
electronically in the CM/ECF system, you must complete the following steps.
Complete both of the mandatory Electronic Learning Modules (ELMs) located at
www.ca1.uscourts.gov on the Electronic Filing - CM/ECF page. The lessons provide a
step-by-step overview of how to file various types of documents, as well as how to avoid
common filing errors.
Apply for admission if you are not a member of this court’s bar. In order to register
as an ECF Filer, attorneys must be admitted to the bar of this court. For information on
attorney admission, go to the Forms & Notices page on the First Circuit’s website at
www.ca1.uscourts.gov.
Register for a PACER account at http://www.pacer.psc.uscourts.gov if you or your
law firm have not previously done so. A PACER account is required to view docket
reports and electronically filed documents.
Register with PACER for a First Circuit Appellate ECF Filer account at
http://www.pacer.psc.uscourts.gov. You must register for an ECF Filer account with this
court order to electronically file documents through the court’s CM/ECF system. If you
previously registered through PACER for electronic noticing in the First Circuit, and you
are a member of the bar of the First Circuit Court of Appeals, you do not have to reregister for an appellate CM/ECF account.
Review the Administrative Order Regarding CM/ECF (which sets forth rules
governing electronic filing) and the CM/ECF User’s Guide. Complete information
about CM/ECF is available on the First Circuit’s website at www.ca1.uscourts.gov.
