CHECK INDIVIDUAL CASES IN THE "AUTOMATED VICTIM NOTIFICATION" (AVN) SYSTEM BY PHONE or online through VINELink: In Cook County, check most recent information in the Circuit Court Clerk's system by calling AVN: 877-846-3445. For English, press "1" and then "2" to check court hearing information. As the message states, you will need to enter EITHER "the Circuit Court Clerk's case number, IR number, or the police incident report number" (see explanations at the *** below) OR the defendant's first and last names with correct spelling. If you have one of the listed numbers, press "1". If you have only the defendant's name (correct spelling), press "2".

*** The Circuit Court Clerk's case number begins with the last two digits of the year in which the case was filed and typically ends with 01 or 02. We do not provide the IR number. The police incident report number for Chicago cases is the Records Department of "RD number", which begins with two letters (in 2018 JB) followed by 6 numbers.
