The U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana announced on April 23 that it will conduct maintenance on its Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) server starting Friday, April 24, 2026. The maintenance is expected to begin at 5:30 p.m. and could last until early Monday, April 27.
This scheduled downtime means that users will not be able to access the CM/ECF system during this period. The announcement is important for attorneys, parties in cases, and other users who rely on electronic filing and access to court documents.
The court said the maintenance is necessary to ensure continued reliability and performance of its electronic case management system. Regular updates like these are part of ongoing efforts by courts nationwide to maintain secure and effective online services.
Users are encouraged to plan their filings accordingly ahead of the scheduled outage.
