Voice Case Information System (VCIS), is a free system that provides basic information via a toll-free phone call. It has been in use for many years, and is an important component of access to court records.
Recently a new system has been developed that will centralize the VCIS services. Multi-Court VCIS, "McVCIS", is centralized system that combines many bankruptcy courts into a single access system.
McVCIS has been enhanced to provide a better experience. It provides a multi-lingual (English and Spanish) voice, increased availability monitoring, and increased hardware capabilities.
The new phone number is 1-866-222-8029. The Illinois Northern Bankruptcy Court is #15.
The legacy system will be retired on 6/1/2010.
