Multi-Court Voice Case Information System

McVCIS is an acronym for the Multi-Court Voice Case Information System. McVCIS allows anyone with a touch tone telephone the ability to call a court, request information about a particular case, and have a computer read the data directly from the Case Management/ Electronic Case Filing (CM/ECF) database to the caller. Dial toll free, 866-222-8029.

When a call is placed to McVCIS, the caller is asked to select a court then a search method. A caller may search for case information by entering a case number, the name of the debtor or party in the bankruptcy case or adversary proceeding, a social security number, or a tax identification number. To enter the information, the caller must press the lettered buttons on the phone which correspond to the search criteria. If valid search clues have been entered, McVCIS will retrieve and read the matching case information to the caller. Inquiries take only a few minutes to complete and the most commonly asked information is provided to the caller.
