Mobile Bar Association - Bankruptcy Section - NexGen Working Group is Being Formed.

We are forming a working group to examine the court's ECF procedures.  The first task of the working group will be to review ECF procedures to ensure that they are consistent with the current version of CM/ECF and Local Rules.  The NexGen Working Group will also begin discussions to consider any issues presented by the next generation of CM/ECF (NexGen).

The overall goal of the working group will be to review court and local procedures to ensure they are consistent with current practice and applicable rules.  The NexGen Working Group will meet routinely with a representative from the Clerk's, Chapter 13, and BA offices.  

The group will meet at least twice a month and then monthly once the conversion to NexGen has taken place in June 2015.

On October 14, 2014 @ 11:00 AM, the first meeting of the formally named NexGen Working Group will be held at the Bankruptcy Courthouse. We will be discussing the ECF registration form that provides that registration as an ECF Filer constitutes consent to electronic service of certain filings and what service must be done by paper via the US Postal Service.  If you would like to be involved in the working group, please contact me Chris Conte @CTC@helmsinglaw.com .
