1. Case-related telephone inquiries should be made to the courtroom deputies or the appropriate case manager, not to the law clerks or to the Judge.
2. Information about the electronic filing of documents, exemptions to the electronic filing of documents, the entry of orders, or docket entries should be obtained from the United States Bankruptcy Court, Plano at 972-509-1240. In addition, such information is available through the Case Management /Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) database, which provides attorneys with docketing information, printable images of documents, 24-hour filing capability, and e-mail (rather than fax) notification of the entry of court orders and judgments. This database can be accessed from the Eastern District’s web site at www.txeb.uscourts.gov and requires registration.
3. Substantive issues should not be raised in letter form because letters are not docketed or included in the appellate record. A copy of urgent documents, including letters, should be sent directly to chambers to ensure that they quickly come to the court’s attention.
4. Any questions concerning electronic filing procedures, requirements, or attorney registration should be directed to the Bankruptcy Clerk’s Office.
