Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code enables a debtor to reorganize pursuant to a plan. A plan is not effective unless approved by the court at a confirmation hearing. Creditors will be given notice concerning any plan, or in the event the case is dismissed or converted to another chapter of the Bankruptcy Code. The Debtors will remain in possession of their property and will continue to operate any business unless a trustee is appointed. CREDITORS MAY NOT TAKE CERTAIN ACTIONS. A creditor is anyone to whom a debtor owes money or property. Under the Bankruptcy Code, a debtor is granted certain protection against creditors. Common examples of prohibited actions by creditors are contacting a debtor to demand repayment, taking action against a debtor to collect money owed to creditors or to take property of a debtor, and starting or continuing foreclosure actions or repossessions. If unauthorized actions are taken by a creditor against a debtor, the Court may penalize that creditor. A creditor who is considering taking action against a debtor or the property of a debtor should review § 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and may wish to seek legal advice. The staff of the Clerk of the Bankruptcy Court are not permitted to give legal advice. MEETING OF CREDITORS. The Debtor(s)’ representative, as specified in Rule 9001(5) of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure (the “Bankruptcy Rules”), is required to appear at the meeting of creditors on the date and at the place set forth above for the purpose of being examined under oath. Attendance by creditors at the meeting is welcomed, but not required. At the meeting, the creditors may examine the Debtor(s) and transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting. The meeting may be continued or adjourned from time to time by notice at the meeting, without further written notice to the creditors. CLAIMS. Schedules of creditors will be filed pursuant to Bankruptcy Rule 1007. Any creditor holding a scheduled claim which is not listed as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated as to amount may, but is not required to, file a proof of claim in these cases. Creditors whose claims are not scheduled or whose claims are listed as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated as to amount and who desire to participate in the cases or share in any distribution must file their proofs of claim. A creditor who desires to rely on the schedule of creditors has the responsibility for determining that the claim is listed accurately. Separate notice of the deadlines to file proofs of claim and proof of claim forms will be provided to the Debtor(s)’ known creditors. Proof of claim forms also are available in the clerk’s office of any bankruptcy court. Proof of Claim forms are also available from the Court’s web site at www.deb.uscourts.gov, (insert name of claims agent if approved by court order) is the claims agent in these cases and can provide a proof of claim form if you cannot obtain one from your local bankruptcy court.
