What You Can Fax to United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit

  • A records or docket-sheet copy request to the clerk
  • A pro se document where the court permits fax (confirm first)
  • Supporting material a clerk requests by fax
  • Attorney-admission or appearance correspondence

Tip: Remember that a filing at the Tenth Circuit goes through CM/ECF, not fax — confirm with the clerk's office whether your specific document is faxable at all.

Where fax stands in for service, confirm the recipient agreed to it and keep proof of the transmission.

Courtesy copies and service at the Tenth Circuit

In a case before the Tenth Circuit, documents often move between counsel, parties, and process servers by fax. Correspondence between counsel — extensions, meet-and-confer letters, exhibits — often moves fastest by fax. Send it from your computer, keep the confirmation, and note it in the file as proof it went through.

How filings actually reach the Tenth Circuit

The Tenth Circuit requires attorneys to file through CM/ECF, so fax is not the channel for a court filing. Fax is generally not accepted for filing a document with the court, so a filing goes on the electronic docket. So confirm with the clerk's office whether fax is accepted for your specific document before you send it.
