The website for the Cook County Circuit Court Clerk remained under maintenance Thursday, almost two weeks after “unusual activity” was discovered on the server, the clerk’s office said.

In a statement, Circuit Court Clerk Iris Martinez said the detection of the troubling activity on Aug. 13 triggered an investigation that has not yet concluded. She did not elaborate on what the “unusual activity” was but said no personal information or court records were affected because those are on a separate server.

Her statement added that the website is currently “under maintenance for updates” and people should access the clerk’s various office divisions via phone or email. The updates were needed to improve software, security and technology, Martinez said.

She also blamed her predecessor, Dorothy Brown, for the need to upgrade the website.

“These upgrades are necessary to ensure that the lack of attention by the prior administration to the applications used and security components of the website are addressed appropriately,” Martinez said.

The release said the court clerk’s office can “confirm personal information from the public … (was) not impacted.”
