Federal Bankruptcy Court Districts

There are 94 federal judicial districts in the United States, each with a bankruptcy court. Your case must be filed in the district where you have lived for the greater part of the last 180 days.

To find your court:

1. Visit uscourts.gov/court-locator
2. Enter your zip code or state
3. The locator will show your district and the clerk's office address

Most districts allow electronic filing (CM/ECF) for attorneys. Pro se filers typically file in person at the clerk's office, though some districts now accept pro se electronic filing.
