Before you file, go the extra mile! Many forms on this page are fillable portable document format (PDF) files, in that they can be downloaded and modified to include information about your case. If you plan to electronically file a fillable form, please review your flattened* and completed form by emailing it to yourself first. If the form is complete when viewed through your email, then it should appear the same way when you electronically file the PDF in CM/ECF or through email (for self-represented filers).
*Instructions concerning how to “flatten” a PDF are available on the web from your PDF reader/editor software provider.
