    Courtesy Electronic Filing of my Documents?

    I am re-posting this from my other thread because I think it's gonna get lost in the shuffle. I'm curious about what this means.

    "Okay... another question. I executed the RA and faxed it over to the FMC attorney's office (mailing the original tomorrow) - and I got home and checked Pacer and the attorney already filed a Request for Courtesy Electronic Filing of all documents filed in the case. Why is that? Because now they're a part of the deal? Is this a normal behavior? I'm only curious because (A) it's my first/only BK case and (B) it looks weird because when I filed I didn't have a job. Coincidentally, one day before I got the RA, I was officially hired full time at a nice (sort of ) paying job and it no longer poses a hardship for me to make a car payment (not that I was ever late - we just didn't have Christmas last year...). So I'm feeling odd and paranoid.

    Words of comfort?"

    Sounds like just a Request of Notice and an Appearance. Nothing to really worry about. If you need to serve and notice that creditor, just know that you would need to serve anything on that person and address.

    This is normal, an appearance, when a new attorney is involved.

        Yeah either that, or I was thinking that maybe they are requesting permission to file their own documents electronically instead of by mail because they are not registered for electronic filing in your district, maybe. Just a thought.

          Nah. Creditors can file claims electronically, but only attorneys, with a bar number and admitted before the USBC, can file electronically. I think they also have to attend a class before being granted filing access to CM/ECF (PACER). (Yes, I asked! )
