HYPERLINKING In the Federal Courts

What is hyperlinking? The process of adding active links to websites, or documents stored on a website, to text.

Benefits of hyperlinking Provides quick, easy, and pinpoint access to particular sections of a case, or to specific filings in the court’s record. Allows judges and attorneys to quickly and correctly access: the relevant evidence being cited without having to navigate through the CM/ECF record; and the law being cited. Allows judges and attorneys to quickly review text written at their direction or under their supervision.

What links can or should be added? Caveat: Check your local rules. Generally permitted links: CM/ECF filings; Cited legal authorities; and Documents posted on the court website, (e.g., local rules, general orders, taxable interest charts, etc). Always provide the full and correct citation to the document being cited. Never link to webpages as evidence in support of a motion unless citing to pages on the CM/ECF docket.
