ng of Creditors
The debtor's representative
must attend the meeting to be
questioned under oath.
Creditors may attend, but are
not required to do so.
7. Proof of Claim Deadline:
TBD
The meeting may be continued or
adjourned to a later date. If so, the date
will be on the court docket.
no for filing proof of claim:
Location: TBD
Not set yet. When a deadline
is set, you will receive another
notice.
A proof of claim is a signed statement describing a creditor's claim. A proof of
claim form may be obtained at www.uscourts.gov or any bankruptcy clerk's
office.
Your claim will be allowed in the amount scheduled unless:
• Your claim is designated as disputed, contingent, or unliquidated;
• You file a proof of claim in a different amount; or
• You receive another notice.
If your claim is not scheduled or if your claim is designated as disputed,
contingent, or unliquidated, you must file a proof of claim or you might not be
paid on your claim and you might be unable to vote on a plan. You may file a
proof of claim even if your claim is scheduled.
You may review the schedules at the bankruptcy clerk's office or online at
hfi)s://Pacer.uscourts.aov.
Secured creditors retain rights in their collateral regardless of whether they file
a proof of claim. Filing a proof of claim submits a creditor to the jurisdiction of
the bankruptcy court, with consequences a lawyer can explain. For example, a
secured creditor who files a proof of claim may surrender important nonmonetary
rights, including the right to a jury trial.
8. Exception to discharge
If § 523(c) applies to your claim and you seek to have it excepted from discharge,
deadline
you must start a judicial proceeding by filing a complaint by the deadline stated
below.

attorney familiar with United States bankruptcy law if you have any questions
about your rights in this case.
10. Filing a Chapter 11
Chapter 11 allows debtors to reorganize or liquidate according to a plan. A plan
bankruptcy case
is not effective unless the court confirms it. You may receive a copy of the plan
and a disclosure statement telling you about the plan, and you may have the
opportunity to vote on the plan. You will receive notice of the date of the
confirmation hearing, and you may object to confirmation of the plan and attend
the confirmation hearing. Unless a trustee is serving, the debtor will remain in
possession of the property and may continue to operate its business.

11. Discharge
debts Confirmation of a chapter 11 plan may result in a discharge of debts, which may
include all or part of your debt. See 11 U.S.C. § 1141(d). A discharge means
that creditors may never try to collect the debt from the debtor except as provided
in the plan. If you want to have a particular debt owed to you excepted from the
discharge and § 523(c) applies to your claim, you must start a judicial proceeding
by filing a complaint and paying the filing fee in the bankruptcy clerk's office by
the deadline.
