Why use UniCourt to search for cases in the Northern District of Texas?

Locating the court records you need for the Northern District of Texas from the Public Access to Court Electronic Records, or PACER, can be pricey, difficult, and time-consuming.

UniCourt gathers court data for all of the new federal civil cases in the Northern District of Texas everyday, and we give you the ability to search through all of those new case filings in our CrowdSourced Library™ for free. UniCourt also gives you real-time, bulk access to the entire PACER database of civil and criminal federal court data from the Texas Northern District through our PACER API. Unlike UniCourt, PACER charges for every case search you make on their platform, even if the search terms you used produce bad results. Worse, PACER does not limit the cost of each case search you make, meaning you could be charged excessive fees for searches that return a mountain of unusable results.

PACER also forces users to pay additional fees if they want to download the same document multiple times. In contrast, if UniCourt has a document you need from N.D. Tex. in our CrowdSourced Library™, you can download it for free as many times as you’d like. Not only does PACER charge to download the same document multiple times, but PACER also charges document fees. PACER charges 10 cents per page and claims that these fees are capped at $3, but they can actually be much higher for access to court transcripts.

In addition to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, UniCourt gives you access to court records for all of the other U.S. District Courts in Texas, including the Western District of Texas, the Southern District of Texas, and the Eastern District of Texas. UniCourt also provides you with bulk access to all federal court records within Texas, such as cases filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit at the John Minor Wisdom U.S. Court of Appeals Building and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas. Beyond federal court records across the State of Texas, UniCourt further provides you with access to Texas state court records for counties in the Texas Northern District, including Dallas County and Tarrant County.

UniCourt’s industry-leading Legal Data APIs provide Enterprise users with on-demand, bulk access to structured data from Texas state and federal courts. UniCourt collects, organizes, standardizes, and normalizes court data from all federal courts and makes it easily accessible via our APIs as a part of our Legal Data as a Service (LDaaS) offerings for business development, competitive intelligence, litigation strategy, and process automation.
