By submitting this registration form, the undersigned agrees to the following:

  1. This system is for use only in cases permitted by the U.S. Courts for the Northern
    District of Mississippi. It may be used to file and view electronic documents, docket
    sheets, and notices.

  2. Pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11, every pleading, motion, and other
    paper (except list, schedules, statements or amendments thereto) shall be signed by at
    least one attorney of record or, if the party is not represented by an attorney, all papers
    shall be signed by the party. An attorney’s password issued by the court combined with
    the user’s identification, serves as and constitutes the attorney signature. Therefore, an
    attorney must protect and secure the password issued by the court. If there is any
    reason to suspect the password has been compromised in any way, it is the duty and
    responsibility of the attorney to immediately notify the court. This should include the
    resignation or reassignment of the person with authority to use the password. The
    attorney should change the password immediately.
  3. An attorney’s registration will constitute a waiver of conventional service of documents,
    the attorney agrees to accept service of notice on behalf of the client of the electronic filing by hand, facsimile or authorized e-mail.

  4. The undersigned attorney agrees to abide by the most recent General Orders, Administrative Procedures for Electronic Case Filing, and all technical and procedural requirements set forth therein.
