Note: the count above is just for the Sacramento division of the Eastern District of California. As you can see below, the judicial district covers more than just the Sacramento area.
The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of California covers a large swath of northern California. It reaches from the Oregon border down to Mono County. The District is split into three main divisions: Sacramento, Modesto and Fresno. While there is a Bankruptcy Court in Bakersfield, the caseload for that court has been transferred to the Fresno division for now.
You can find more information about the various divisions and their coverage areas at the US Bankruptcy Court website.
The number of filings each month dictates the pace of the proceedings in the court. For instance, I am finding that simple Chapter 7 bankruptcy cases are taking about 110 days. This is from the date of filing to the date of discharge. This matches the advice that I generally give folks when they ask how long Chapter 7 bankruptcy takes. I usually tell people about 4 months from start to finish.
Please call Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney Rick Morin at (916) 333-2222 if you are considering filing for bankruptcy in Sacramento.
