T-Mobile, the giant cellphone provider, has filed suit in U.S. District Court against the city of Lansing (MI) to continue its efforts to bully its way to get a 120-foot in one of the city’s neighborhoods, Averill Woods.
Negotiations between T-Mobile and the city are continuing behind an impenetrable iron curtain while neighborhood residents have offered to work with the cellphone company to both provide service and preserve the visual qualities of the area.
My question: Is there a way to access lawsuit filings online to help residents understand the schedule for the hearings and to understand the demands in the legal action? The case number is 107-CV-1173.
I invite and look forward to anybody with suggestions or experience in researching legal actions like this.

Try the PACER website.

You sign up for an account and pay a few cents per page viewed. You’ll have to play around a bit on the site to find the case, but with the case number you’ll get it eventually.
