CJA eVoucher AI Billing Tool
for D. Alaska Panel Attorneys

The United States District Court for the District of Alaska is a single federal district covering the entire state — the largest state in the nation by land area — with courthouse locations in Anchorage (the primary courthouse, James M. Fitzgerald United States Courthouse), Fairbanks, Juneau, Ketchikan, and Nome. D. Alaska sits within the Ninth Circuit and serves a district larger than the combined area of Texas, California, and Montana, encompassing the Anchorage metropolitan area and Matanuska-Susitna Valley, the Interior communities along the Parks Highway and Dalton Highway to the North Slope, the Southeast Alaska panhandle communities of Juneau, Sitka, Ketchikan, and Wrangell, the Gulf Coast and Kodiak Island communities, the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutian Islands, and the remote Bering Sea coast communities around Nome, Bethel, and the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta.

The district's federal criminal docket is shaped by Alaska's unique geography and demographics. Drug trafficking — particularly methamphetamine flown or shipped into remote communities — generates a sustained volume of federal prosecutions. Alaska Native village communities across the state generate cases involving crimes on tribal lands and in Alaska Native villages with limited local law enforcement capacity; the federal government is often the primary law enforcement authority in rural Alaska. The district handles a steady volume of firearms offenses, sexual assault, child exploitation, and violent crime arising from remote communities that have no access to state court facilities.
