Illinois Appearance On Account is a tool that allows Illinois residents to view their court appearances remotely. This tool is available to those who have a case in the Circuit Court of Cook County, and is accessible via the Circuit Clerk's website. There are three types of Illinois Appearance On Account: virtual, phone, and in-person. With virtual appearances, users can view their court appearance online or through a mobile device. With phone appearances, users can call a toll-free number and listen to the court proceedings. Lastly, with in-person appearances, users must appear in court in person. All of these options provide users with the same level of access to their court appearances and proceedings.
