The United States District Court for the Eastern District of Washington (Spokane Division) utilizes the CM/ECF NextGen system for electronic filings, offers advanced in-courtroom electronic evidence display, and governs remote appearances through local orders and procedures.


Technology Overview

  • Electronic Filing (CM/ECF):
    All attorneys and filer-users must submit documents electronically via the court’s CM/ECF system. The court’s “ECF Administrative Procedures” detail required PDF formatting, service mechanisms, and deadlines.
