questions post filing in 341

[zach]

Are creditors entitled to ask questions regarding post filing actions?

I suppose it depends on what the question is. For instance, what did you do with the collateral seems a pertinent question if you transferred or disposed of anything between filing and your 341. If they are asking how you are spending your money post filing then I don't think they are entitled to an answer on that.

Your filing date is the key. How you spent money and handled debt to that point is all part of the case and fair game. Post filing, your assets are part of the bankruptcy estate so you are generally prohibited from disposing of those without court permission, until your discharge is granted.
