I received a warning saying the transaction submitted has already been posted.

Answer: 

CM/ECF infrequently but erroneously reuses a transaction ID for two unrelated case transactions, which may interfere with the proper docketing of a filing.  When this happens the filer gets an unusual message from CM/ECF that appears to indicate a filing has been accepted, but reports two separate case numbers. If users receive this unusual ECF message they must check the docket to confirm that the intended transaction was docketed, and resubmit the transaction if it does not appear on the docket sheet.
