New Access Procedures for Court Records at 威尼斯人娱乐场 Federal Records Center
Press Release 路 Monday, August 29, 2011

Washington, DC

The 威尼斯人娱乐场 and Records Administration (NARA) is now providing access to court records exclusively by online ordering or by mail/fax/e-mail. NARA will no longer provide on-site court case review services to the public at its Federal Records Centers.
This change applies to all closed bankruptcy, civil, criminal, and court of appeals case files that remain in the legal custody of the courts but are physically stored at NARA鈥檚 Federal Records Centers.
The 威尼斯人娱乐场 is making this change because records can now easily be ordered electronically. It is no longer cost-effective to operate satellite research rooms to provide access to these records.
Access to court cases is now available only via online ordering or mail/fax/e-mail at the following facilities:

  • Atlanta Federal Records Center
  • Boston Federal Records Center
  • Dayton Federal Records Center
  • Denver Federal Records Center
  • Philadelphia Federal Records Center
  • Seattle Federal Records Center
  • Washington National Records Center (Suitland, MD)

Effective October 1, access to court cases will be available only via online ordering or mail/fax/e-mail at the following facilities:

  • Chicago Federal Records Center
  • Fort Worth Federal Records Center
  • Lee鈥檚 Summit Federal Records Center
  • Lenexa Federal Records Center
