The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin announced on Mar. 26 that its Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) system may be unavailable for about five minutes during scheduled maintenance on Saturday, April 18, 2026. The possible outage is expected to occur between 5:00 AM and 10:00 AM.

The notice informs users that they should plan accordingly due to the potential short-term unavailability of the electronic filing and case management system.

The CM/ECF system is used by attorneys, trustees, and court staff to file documents and manage bankruptcy cases electronically. Scheduled maintenance like this helps ensure continued reliability and security of the platform.

No additional background or further details were provided in the announcement.
