9th Circuit ACMS webinars

As of October 1, 2023, all new appeals and original proceedings in the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals will be opened and processed in this Court's new electronic filing system, ACMS (Appellate Case Management System). Notices of appeal will continue to be filed in the lower court but appeals will be opened in this Court in ACMS. New counseled original proceedings (petitions for writ of mandamus/prohibition and petitions for permission to appeal) must be submitted electronically through your ACMS Portal. Appeals and original proceedings opened in this Court in CM/ECF prior to October 1, 2023 will continue to be processed in CM/ECF. Please note that Notice of Docket Activity emails for cases in ACMS are sent from ca9.fedcourts.us, while those notices for cases in CM/ECF are sent from ca9.uscourts.gov, and ensure that your spam filters are set to allow emails from both domains.
All attorneys and parties who are registered for electronic filing in the Ninth Circuit will automatically have access to the ACMS Portal using their PACER credentials. You can find more information about ACMS, as well as a link to the Portal https://ca9-portal.powerappsportals.us/ and the Administrative Order Regarding ACMS https://cdn.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/general/2023/06/16/Admin-order-final-June-2023.pdf on our website at https://www.ca9.uscourts.gov/efiling/acms/

The Court will provide two open Zoom training sessions for anyone who would like a demonstration of the new system, and will post a recording of the first session on the website at the above-referenced link. These sessions will occur on the following dates at the link below:
