REQUEST FOR ATTORNEY CODE/ADDRESS CHANGE
Dear Sir/Madam: The District Court assigns Attorney Codes to attorneys who file civil cases in order to: · Streamline the data entry process for the District Court. · Set up a record of your name, address, and phone number, which can easily be edited upon notification of any change to your information. · Automatically update attorney information on all cases in which the Attorney Code is used. 1. New Applicant: To be assigned an Attorney Code, please complete the "Current Address" section on the Request for Attorney Code/Address change form on the following page. 2. Change of Name/Address/Firm Name: To update the information for your existing Attorney Code, please complete the "Current Address" and "Former Address" section. This category should be selected when you are changing your name, your firm's address, or if you are going to a new firm and taking ALL cases where you are the attorney-of-record. 3. New Code: A new code should only be requested if you leave your current firm and some of your current cases remain with the firm. *Note: You must notify the District Court location where the case was filed to update your cases with your new attorney code. Your previous attorney code will remain linked to the case(s) you leave behind. Your former law firm must request attorney code changes to those cases left behind. 4.
