PACER means Public Access to Court Electronic Records. This includes criminal, civil and bankruptcy records. This service is free to sign up. You sign up and any actual pages you view/copy they charge you .07/page. You can keep track of the progress by going to the next to last step and see if any new updates have been entered, this next to the last step is free. This means you can check for free any updates, but to actually see that update it will cost you a few cents. So far J&K is 4 pages so it costs you .28 each time you view the docket entries.
This is the sample of the free next-to-the-last entry to check up on the latest updates. I could come to this page free anytime and since I have already read the 8/6 entry and see that there is no additional entry, I would not need to take the next step and see all the entries which would cost me $.28 each time. You get billed when your account reaches $10.00.

C. Putting your name
on the reimbursement list is for the purpose of receiving some of your
money back.
Probably the people putting their name on the list are those that didn't make any money off of J&K. The IRS requires that if you have a foreign account over $10,000, you need to report it. But if you made no money on that account, then there is no need to report anything. The IRS is only interested if you have made any money off shore. If you have any question about the receiver turning over any info to the IRS, go to the SEC page,
http://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases.shtml
check the Investor Claims Funds, and pick a case that has a receiver and ask him what their policy is.
