REQUEST TO ADD ATTORNEY
OR AMEND ATTORNEY INFORMATION
in MassCourts, BasCOT-Civil, BasCOT-Criminal & WMS

Trial  Court  of  Massachusetts
   District Court Department

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ATTORNEYS ABOUT THIS FORM - PLEASE READ

The  computerized  case  processing  systems  used  in  some  District  Court  divisions  (BasCOT-Civil  for  civil  cases,  and  either  MassCourts,  BasCOT-Criminal  or
WMS for criminal cases) are periodically updated with name and business address information for Massachusetts attorneys sent electronically from the Board of
Bar Overseers (BBO).

MASSACHUSETTS  ATTORNEY  INFORMATION.  This  form  permits  you  to  update  name  or  business  address  information  for  a  Massachusetts  attorney  on
these computer systems until the next electronic update of attorney information is received from the BBO.  It is essential that Massachusetts attorneys report
address  changes  to  the  BBO  within  30  days  (as  required  by  SJC  Rule  4:02),  and  petitions  for  name  changes  to  the  clerk  of  the  Supreme  Judicial
Court for Suffolk County, since any changes made by submitting this form will be overridden by the next electronic update of attorney information
from the BBO.  (In the case of MassCourts, changes made by submitting this form will remain in the system for 14 days and thereafter will be overridden by the
next electronic update of attorney information from the BBO.) Attorneys may now report both business and residential address changes to the BBO online at
http://www.state.ma.us/obcbbo/bboreg/address.htm or by fax  to the BBO at (617) 728-8856.  Please note that these computer systems do not currently record
multiple business addresses for an attorney.  An attorney's address must be the same as that attorney's business address on file with the BBO.

OUT-OF-STATE ATTORNEYS & RULE 3:03 or 3:04 LAW STUDENTS. This form may also be used to add to these computer systems an out-of-state attorney
(i.e., one not registered with the Massachusetts BBO) who has been admitted pro hac vice (for a particular case) by a judge, or a law student who represents a
party under S.J.C. Rules 3:03 or 3:04.  AOTC's Information Services Department will assign these a special number (beginning with the letter "F" for foreign
attorneys, and  "S" for law students) for use in these systems, in lieu of a Massachusetts BBO number.  "F" and "S" listings will not be affected by subsequent
BBO updates for Massachusetts attorneys.

overridden by the next electronic update of attorney information from the BBO.

Add newly-admitted Massachusetts attorney.  Please add the above Massachusetts attorney who is newly registered or reactivated with the
