Access to court records for any Federal District Court. The application uses your PACER login and searches PACER databases for the following information:

Case Summary
Docket

-No more case numbers to keep track of. Add a case to MyCases and name it whatever you want.
-Save attorney contact information straight from PACER to your address book
-View and e-mail docket entries, including briefs and orders, right from your phone.
-Check deadlines and find the date of your next hearing on the road.

No more waiting to get to a computer. All the case information you need, quickly, in the palm of your hand. Worth the purchase price the first time you use it.

Customer Reviews

Only works for district court (2 stars)
This app does not work for bankruptcy court or for courts of appeals. After spending $9.99, i reread the description and it only claims to work for district court so my bad. But how hard could it be to wrap in bankruptcy and appellate courts? Please upgrade soon!

Great App – Needs full iPad support! (4 stars)
This is a great app. I particularly like the fact that I can store my active cases for quick access. With that said, this app desparately needs iPad support. It would also be helpful to be able to store downloaded documents locally so that you don't have to download them from pacer every time you want to read them.

Great App!! (5 stars)
Agree with the other two reviewers that this app desperately needs capability to access the Courts of Appeals, and needs an ipad interface.

As to the ability to download documents, this is easy enough to get around, as you can email documents to yourself. Nice, though, to be able to see full PACER dockets, deadlines, and case documents, which you cannot do in Safari.
