Electronic Bankruptcy Noticing (EBN) |
||
 The U.S. Bankruptcy Courts encourage the bankruptcy community to utilize Electronic Bankruptcy Noticing (EBN). EBN is a free service that allows court notices to be transmitted electronically, delivering them faster and more conveniently. Some of the advantages to electronic noticing are: Court notices are sent the same day they are produced by the court.
