How did you know if you were confirmed?

We had our confirmation hearing yesterday and an 11th hour change the day before. Our attorney told us we didn't need to attend. I've emailed them, but haven't heard back...is that good news or bad news? I check on the 13datacenter and it has an N/A by our Confirmation date. If we didn't get confirmed, wouldn't we know?? We are assuming no news is good news....?

Your lawyer had to be at the confirmation hearing - give him/her a call on Monday. Also the court will snail-mail a letter signed by your local court judge to your home address stating your plan is confirmed.

Actually, that depends. In lots of jurisdictions, no appearance is necessary by the lawyer or the debtor(s) if there is no opposition to confirmation by a creditor or the trustee. So to say that the lawyer had to be there is iffy.

Nonetheless, if you can't get through to the lawyer (and you should) on Monday (remember, it's Columbus Day so don't freak out if the lawyer isn't at work) just give a call to the Court on Tuesday morning at 9:00am. Ask to be connected to the judge's chambers and ask the calendar clerk.

Thank you! oh, and thanks for the heads up on Columbus day. I've been checking the mail like crazy hoping that there might be something in there. Now I wont worry until after Tuesday.
