IN CHAMBERS (No Proceedings Held) – REQUEST RE
ATTORNEY CONSENT TO E-SERVICE OF DOCUMENTS

The Case Management/Electronic Case Filing (“CM/ECF”) system is the case
management system for the District Court. CM/ECF allows the Court to accept filings and
provide access to filed documents over the Internet. CM/ECF keeps out-of-pocket expenses
low, gives concurrent access to case files by multiple parties, and offers expanded search
and reporting capabilities.
While electronic filing of documents in the CM/ECF system is mandatory for
attorneys, receipt of electronic notice of documents filed (i.e., e-service of filed documents)
is subject to the consent of participating attorneys. If an attorney has not consented to
receive e-service of filed documents, service of such documents is effected in the traditional
manner, i.e., via a U.S. Postal Service mailing. As such, attorney participation by
consenting to e-service results in substantial cost savings to the Court.
The Court has been advised that attorney Mary Ann Thi Nguyen has not consented to
e-service of documents filed with the Court’s CM/ECF filing system.
Ms. Nguyen is requested to file a response within seven days hereof indicating
whether she will consent to e-service of filed documents and, if not, the reason for nonconsent. Attached hereto are the instructions for communicating consent. If needed,
assistance is available at the website provided in the instructions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
