I've noticed people looking up pacer for their status on here. We tried that for western washington and it says you have to be an attorney or work in the legal profession to do this. Has anyone else seen this? Don't want to get into trouble with the courts on this.

There are certain parts of PACER that are for legal counsel but you can set yourself up a user id/login and password. I'm not sure exactly how I got it but others will chime in here to help you out!

PACER stands for Public Access to Court Electronic Records. As far as I know, anyone can view it. You may need to be affiliated with the Court to update or add new info, but anyone can use PACER to look at filings and cases.
You will have to Register. If you opt to pay with a Debit Card, you'll be granted immediate access. Everything,......... Confirmation, billing, etc, will be handled via email. If you go the old fashioned "snail mail" way, you can get access in 7-10 business days.
Once you register, you'll be assigned a PACER User ID and Password. That will allow you to access case files. You cannot post new information or upload documents. You would have to have a special key to do that. But you can view documents and filings associated with various cases.Filed Ch 7 - 09/06
