One of
the major tasks that a federal bankruptcy court must perform is to
provide public information about the cases it handles. This
can be done over the telephone, by answering mail requests, or assisting
people who show up at the court in person. |
|
| The Voice Case Information
System allows anyone with a touch tone telephone to call the
court, enter a party name, a case number, a social security number
or a tax ID, and have the computer read the case data directly from
the court database. This is done automatically using a voice
synthesizer so that the court staff is not tied up answering public
inquiries. |
|
| To get information
about any case currently in our database, including archived and
closed cases, an individual need only have a party name, a case number,
a social security number or a tax ID, and a touch tone telephone.
The extraction of all case data is performed in real time. |
