DocketBird

What it is Overview

PACER overlay and docket search application providing organised access to federal court case information, documents, and docket sheets. Uses PACER’s ‘free look’ feature. Offers case tracking alerts and search string monitoring. Also includes some state court dockets alongside federal. Referenced as a research resource by multiple law school libraries (Stanford, Vermont Law School, UMass). Listed on Legaltech Hub under Docketing. Notable that the DC Circuit Court of Appeals specifically lists DocketBird alongside PacerPro and RECAP as third-party PACER access services.
