District details verified August 2026 against the court's Local Rules (S.D. Ind. B-3015-1 through B-3015-4) and its published locations, judges and general orders; filing counts are from Administrative Office consumer filing data. Chapter 13 trustee assignments are confirmed per case rather than listed here. Median-income figures are the U.S. Trustee table for cases filed on or after July 15, 2026 and are revised periodically.
