CJA eVoucher AI Billing Tool
for E.D.N.C. Panel Attorneys

The United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina covers the eastern third of the state and holds court in five cities — Raleigh (the primary courthouse), Wilmington, Greenville, New Bern, and Elizabeth City. E.D.N.C. sits within the Fourth Circuit and serves a region ranging from the Research Triangle (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill) in the Piedmont to the Atlantic Coast barrier islands, the Inner Banks, and the coastal plain communities of eastern North Carolina. The district is geographically large and relatively rural outside of the Raleigh metropolitan area.

The district's federal criminal docket is heavily shaped by the large military presence in eastern North Carolina — Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg), Pope Army Airfield, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, and Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune all fall within E.D.N.C., generating a substantial volume of military-adjacent federal criminal matters including drug offenses, firearms cases, and crimes on military reservations. Drug trafficking cases — methamphetamine, heroin, and fentanyl distribution — are the predominant narcotics matters. The district also prosecutes financial fraud, child exploitation, and public corruption. CJA panel attorneys in E.D.N.C. regularly handle cases across the district's five divisions, often traveling between Raleigh and the coastal courthouse locations.
