Short answer, no.
Pacer is not an input system, merely data look-up. Most lawyers do have e-file as primary way of filing, but last I looked it was not avail for pro-se.3/2/09- Filed: chapter 7 / No asset
4/1/09- 341 Hearing: 1 creditor showed upGot to love family feuds
4/2/09- Trustee Report of No Distribution Filed
6/24/09- Discharged and case closed

Technically, there are two systems...there is PACER and there is the CM/ECF. PACER is technically available to anyone and as stated, is simply a look-up
CM/ECF (Case Management/Electronic Case Filing) is how the court manages cases and how attorneys file case electronically in the federal court system. Pro Se individuals DO NOT have access to that system.
