NextChapter Notices automatically saves all notices and free-look PDFs to your cases in NextChapter. If there is no matching case, you can create one and all future notices for it will be saved there.

Who has Notices: Pro+ and Whoa plans include it. On Pro Basic, you can upgrade to Pro+ or Whoa, or purchase it as an add-on in Account Settings > Add-On Tools.

Step 1: Go to Account Settings > User Accounts and Invites to find your unique secondary notices email. Each attorney has their own.

Step 2: Log in to your PACER account directly and add this email as a secondary email.

Step 3: Set your PACER account to send a notice for each filing instead of a Daily Summary Report. For best accuracy, choose to receive the emails in HTML.

Once the email is saved, all incoming notices will be saved to your NextChapter Notices account.

Note: Notices are saved from the time the email is added to your PACER account. Notices for filings made before the email was added are not pulled in automatically.

All notices received by the firm will be shown in the NextChapter Notices Quick View inbox on the firm's dashboard. This is a way to get a quick view of any new notices saved. From this section, you can mark that the notice has been read and that will remove the notices from the quick view but it will still be available in the Notice Full view, which can be accessed by clicking the button to view "View All."

All notices will also be saved in the full firm NextChapter Notices Inbox. There are two tabs you can toggle between at the top. All unread notices will appear in the Inbox tab and all processed notices will appear in the All Notices tab. If you would like to quickly move all notices over to the All Notices tab, you can click on "Mark All" which will automatically mark all notices as read and move those into the other section.

If a notice is received in the inbox for a case that was not created in NextChapter, you can easily assign the notice to a case or you can create a new case where that notice and all future notices for that case will be saved. Simply check the box next to the case, click Assign Case and you'll be prompted to search and select from one of your existing cases or you can select to create a new case.

When creating a new case, be sure to click Add Case and enter the Case Number as exactly shown by the court so that all future notices will be matched to that case.

You can assign and un-assign multiple cases at a time. Just check the boxes next to the cases you would like to assign, then click Assign. And several cases will be assigned at once. You can follow this same process for unassigning cases.

You can also quickly "select all". Just filter by case number, case name, etc. and then check the box at the top of the column. Once that is done, all filtered notices will be selected and you can assign them all to one case.

Notices are also saved directly into each case in NextChapter. You can preview and download the notices from the case by going to Additional Documents > PACER Notices.
