MiFILE Enhancements Requiring Action by Registered Users

On June 7, 2021, some improvements will be made to MiFILE, Michigan's standardized e-Filing system that will require registered users to take some action. You need to be aware there will be a change in the way recipients of e-service are managed in MIFILE that may disrupt e-service to case contacts. It is critical that you read the details of the improvements and the change in filer experience and to take the necessary steps to determine whether you need to re-associate yourself with any cases you participate in.

MiFILE ACTION REQUIRED: YOU MUST RECONNECT TO YOUR CASES

A recent update to the MiFILE system may disconnect your name and email address from your case. This means you will not be e-Served with documents in the case until you reconnect to your case.

To reconnect:

  • Find your case, either by doing a search or reviewing your TrueFiling History.
  • On the Case Details Page, look for the "I am this Person" button to the right of your name.
  • If there is no "I am this Person" button, you are already connected to an email address. To confirm that it is the email address you used for e-Service in your case, go to the Upload Filings screen, select "Serve Document," and review the "Select Recipients" pane.
If you need help reconnecting to your case, watch this short video.
