With the recent retirement of the Federal Circuit’s daily disposition sheet, you may be wondering how you can get the latest opinions and orders of the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit.

The Court’s announcement suggests attorneys visit PACER to view information that used to appear in the disposition sheet. However, viewing the latest CAFC developments on PACER is neither easy nor free. The Court also offers updates on their website that you can check daily— which adds yet another task to your “to do” list. A third option is to subscribe to the CAFC’s RSS feed, but that requires downloading and configuring an RSS reader and it can be difficult to share updates with others.

These options are less than ideal, and fail to fill the void created by the discontinued disposition sheets.

The best option for attorneys looking to receive daily updates from the Federal Circuit is Docket Alarm’s email alert tool. You can receive timely updates from the CAFC by creating your own “disposition sheet.” Simply set up a daily email alert to track Docket Alarm’s Federal Circuit database, and have new opinions and orders sent right to your inbox.
