New York State Supreme Court · NYSCEF (All 62 Counties) · First firms setting up
NYSCEF filings, downloaded, named and filed to your case folders.
Short answer: Most New York litigation and personal injury firms use eLaw or eTrack for court appearance dates, which leaves a paralegal clicking through dozens of NYSCEF notification emails every morning to download the PDFs, rename them, read Preliminary Conference Orders and drag them into case folders. ConnectMyDocket is onboarding a first group of New York firms to automate that daily NYSCEF document loop.
The morning NYSCEF gap in New York litigation firms
Across Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, Long Island and Westchester, active litigation practices receive 30 to 100 NYSCEF email notifications a day. Calendar monitoring tools like eLaw put appearance dates on the calendar, and someone on your team still has to do the document work by hand:
- Open each NYSCEF notification and download the filed PDF.
- Rename generic NYSCEF downloads into the firm's standard format (for example, 2026-11-06 Preliminary Conference Order.pdf).
- Upload the file into the right matter folder in Dropbox, OneDrive, SmartAdvocate, CloudLex, Litify or Filevine.
- Read Preliminary Conference Orders, Compliance Conference Orders and Decisions & Orders for EBT dates, IME cutoffs, discovery responses and Note of Issue deadlines that appearance trackers do not extract.
Why one NYSCEF connector covers all 62 New York counties
Unlike states where every county runs a separate portal, New York Supreme Court uses a single statewide portal (iapps.courts.state.ny.us/nyscef) across all five NYC boroughs, Nassau, Suffolk, Westchester and upstate counties.
Once your firm's index-number list, naming convention and folder structure are configured, every county on NYSCEF follows the same morning workflow and lands in one 7:00 AM digest.
New York NYSCEF questions
- What is the status of ConnectMyDocket for New York NYSCEF?
- New York State Courts Electronic Filing (NYSCEF) is currently being set up with our first group of New York litigation firms, building on the daily court retrieval and filing engine we already run in production in Los Angeles.
- We already use eLaw or eTrack. Why do we still need NYSCEF document retrieval?
- eLaw and eTrack track appearance dates, motion decisions and calendar events, but they do not download the actual e-filed PDF documents from NYSCEF, rename them to your firm’s convention, file them into your case folders or read Preliminary Conference and Compliance Conference Orders for interior discovery deadlines.
- Which New York courts use NYSCEF?
- All 62 counties of the New York State Supreme Court (including Queens, Kings/Brooklyn, Bronx, New York/Manhattan, Richmond/Staten Island, Nassau, Suffolk and Westchester), plus the Court of Claims, Surrogate’s Court and Appellate Division on NYSCEF.
- How do NYSCEF design-partner setups work?
- You share your active index numbers, your file naming convention and where your case folders live (such as Dropbox, OneDrive, SmartAdvocate, CloudLex, Filevine or Litify). We scope the timeline with your team and verify the filed folders alongside your staff.
