Chapter 13 - San Diego Style

Posted by Greg CA on May 30, 2002 at 7:32 PM

Ward,
On May 12th you answered my question with a list of questions I should ask the clerk at the closest federal courthouse.
Taking this as an assignment, below are your questions and the
answers I obtained at 325 West F. Street, San Diego CA.

Would appreciate if you review them and
see if they all look correct. The one I'm a little concerned about is the minimum documentation to get started

Ask the clerk what parts of the petition you need to initially fill out and file as the "emergency petition" in Chapter 13.
THEY GAVE US:
1. FORM B1 ,"Voluntary Petition", 2pgs.
2. CSD1008, VERIFICATION OF CREDITOR MATRIX.
3. THE FLOOPY DISK WITH THE SINGLE FILE "CHAPT 7AA.TXT", WHICH APPEARS TO BE JUST AN EXAMPLE OF A CREDITOR MATRIX.

Also ask:

1. How many copies of your filing you should make?
ORIGINAL + 2

2. Does the Court provide you with a floppy disk to fill out the creditors matrix, for the emergency petition?
NO, BUT YOU CAN USE THEIR COMPUTER TO ENTER DATA. LATER HOWEVER THEY GAVE ME A FLOOPY WITH JUST ONE TEXT FILE, APPARENTLY AN EXAMPLE OF THE FORMAT THEY WANT TO SEE FOR THE CREDITOR MATRIX.

3. Can someone else actually file the emergency petition for you?
YES.

4. What happens if you don't file the balance of the whole petition within the 15 days (after filing the initial emergency petition)?
DISMISSED, LOSE MONEY, START OVER.

5. Can you pay less than the regular filing fee if you are destitute?
NO. $185 FEE. BUT YOU CAN PAY $92.50 THEN $92.50 IN 30 DAYS.

6. In what form can the filing fee be paid? If you pay it in cash you MUST have the exact amount, for they will not make change!!
CASH OR CERTIFIED FUNDS.
