Free feeds, 48 hours behind the docket
The lawsuit wire
Who was sued in federal court in your district, as a feed. Each district below has a free Atom feed of every new civil case, read from the court's own filing feed and released 48 hours after filing. Put it in a feed reader or a Slack channel; no account is needed. The same cases within minutes, by email, are a filing stream.
71 districts on the wire
Counts cover the 14 days before the delay. A case is counted once, on the date its opening filing was made. Districts that publish no filing feed cannot be on the wire.

Questions people ask before they start
Is there a free feed of new federal lawsuits?
Yes. Each of the 71 districts on the wire has a free Atom feed of every new federal civil case filed there, and a second feed of only the cases naming a company, read from the court's own CM/ECF filing feed. Any feed reader takes them, and Slack's RSS app posts each new case into a channel. No account is needed.
How soon after filing does a case appear on the wire?
48 hours after it was filed, and the feeds update within the hour after a case clears that delay. Counts on this page cover the 14 days before the delay. Districts whose court publishes no filing feed cannot be on the wire.
How do I get new lawsuits by email, the day they are filed?
A filing stream on the Professional plan emails every new federal case naming the company, district or phrase you choose, as a morning digest and within minutes on the day. It reads the same court feeds as the wire, so it costs no PACER lookups and needs no PACER login.
