Why use UniCourt to search for cases in the Western District of Tennessee?</

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

UniCourt gathers court data for all of the new federal civil cases in the Western District of Tennessee every day and for you to search through all the 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 Tennessee Western 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 do not produce any results. What’s worse, is that 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 results.

PACER also forces users to pay additional fees to download the same document multiple times. In contrast, you can download documents from W.D. Tenn. in our CrowdSourced Libraryâ„¢ for free as many times as you want. PACER also charges additional document fees. PACER charges 10 cents per page and claims that these fees are capped at $3, but oftentimes the fees can be much higher for access to court transcripts.

In addition to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee, UniCourt provides access to court records for the other U.S. District Court in Tennessee: the Eastern District of Tennessee and the Middle District of Tennessee. UniCourt also offers bulk access to all federal court records within Tennessee, such as cases filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit at the Potter Stewart U.S. Courthouse and the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Tennessee.

UniCourt’s industry-leading Legal Data APIs provide Enterprise users with on-demand, bulk access to structured data from Tennessee state and federal courts.
