   The time can vary depending on the complexity of the case. You can read more info by following the 1st link below.

   To find the filings, you need to get them from the court that has jurisdiction. Some of those have the info on-line, others don’t.

   If the case is large enough, there is often a case management company involved, who posts info on-line. One such company is in the 2nd link below
