Electronic Public Access Public User Group
The Electronic Public Access (EPA) Public User Group provides a forum for PACER users to share and recommend ideas for expanding and improving EPA services.
The EPA Public User Group’s mission is to provide advice and feedback on the development, implementation, and enhancement of electronic public access services provided by the federal Judiciary, including but not limited to PACER, PACER Case Locator, Multi-court Voice Case Information System applications, and the availability of electronic court records.
