indicate to the court staff member that you wish to complete your eRegistration. The

Seattle Court has instituted an “Open Period” where you may come to the court and

complete the eRegistration process. There is no appointment necessary. eRegistration

validation will be conducted during regular court business hours.

Each attorney must pre-register and create their on-line profile as discussed in the body

of this memorandum. If the attorney has not pre-registered or fails to bring the type of

identification discussed in the body of this memorandum, the court's staff will not be

able to validate their identity.

The validation process may take up to ten minutes for each attorney. Please expect

and plan for delays. If a large number of attorneys arrive at once to have their identity

validated, the court will have a second workstation available to assist with the validation

process.
