NOTICE OF AVAILABILITY OF A UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
TO EXERCISE JURISDICTION
In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. §636(c), and Fed.R.Civ.P. 73, you are notified that a United States
magistrate judge of this district court is available to conduct any or all proceedings in this case including a jury or nonjury trial,
and to order the entry of a final judgment. Exercise of this jurisdiction by a magistrate judge is, however, permitted only if all
parties voluntarily consent.
You may, without adverse substantive consequences, withhold your consent, but this will prevent the court’s jurisdiction
from being exercised by a magistrate judge. If any party withholds consent, the identity of the parties consenting or withholding
consent will not be communicated to any magistrate judge or to the district judge to whom the case has been assigned.
An appeal from a judgment entered by a magistrate judge shall be taken directly to the United States court of appeals for
this judicial circuit in the same manner as an appeal from any other judgment of this district court.

RULE 11.4
(A)
ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES
Signatures by Electronic Filers.
(1)
(2)
Electronic filers should sign in the following manner: “s/ Jane Doe.”
Documents signed by an attorney must be filed using that attorney’s log-in
and password; they may not be filed using a log-in and password
belonging to another attorney.
(3)
(B)
Use of a log-in and password for electronic filing constitutes and has the
same force and effect as the filer’s signature for purposes of Fed. R. Civ.
P. 11, the Local Rules of this Court, and any other purpose for which a
signature may be required in connection with proceedings in this Court.
Where multiple attorney signatures are required, such as on a joint motion
or a stipulation, the filing attorney may enter the “s/” of the other attorneys
to reflect their agreement with the contents of the documents.
Signatures by Non-Electronic Filers.
(1)
(2)
The filing party must either redact the original signature[s] and efile the
redacted version of the document, or provide the redacted version to the
Clerk’s Office for scanning and electronic filing. The filed document must
indicate the identity of each non-registered signatory in the form “s/Jane
Doe”. A certificate of Service upon all parties and/or counsel of record
must be filed with the document.
(3)
The filing party must retain the original document until one year after the
date that the judgment has become final by the conclusion of direct review
or the expiration of the time for seeking such review has passed.
(4)
(C)
If an original document requires the signatures[s] of one or more persons
not registered for electronic filing (e.g. settlement agreement with a pro se
party, or a witness’ affidavit), the filing party or its attorney must initially
confirm that the content of the document is acceptable to all persons
required to sign the documents. Original signatures of all non-electronic
filers must be obtained before the document is filed.
The electronically filed document as it is maintained on the court’s servers
constitutes the official version of that record. The court will not maintain a
paper copy of the original document except as otherwise provided in these
Rules.
Disputes Over Authenticity.
Any party or non-filing signatory who disputes the authenticity of an
electronically filed document or the signatures on that document must file an
objection to the document within 14 days of receiving the notice that the
document has been filed.
