Discharge but no report of no distribution?

[yuckhatethis]

I'm a bit confused...I was discharged yesterday, and got a letter from my attorney today saying so (I'd already checked on pacer). Awesome, but he also said that I couldn't sell anything yet because the trustee hadn't filed a report of no distribution. I wasn't planning on selling anything, but I'm also a no asset case? Isn't this report usually filed right after the 341? Will this hold up closing? Should I even be concerned?? Thanks in advance for input.

Bumping-anybody??

It's probably just a matter of the clerk getting the paperwork uploaded to PACER, which since this is Sunday, won't happen before tomorrow at the earliest.

I don't know why the attorney would say not to sell anything. He might just be wanting to 'play it safe.' If you are a 'no asset' case, all of the administrative behind-the-scenes stuff should happen fairly quickly and you should see 'Closed' soon.

But, anyway...................

CONGRATULATIONS on your Discharge. Time to rouse the hamsters!!

Thanks AngelinaCat!

I still haven't seen anything on pacer, which I realize is probably no big deal. However, I'm not sure I understand the difference between being listed as "no asset" and having the Report of No Distribution filed. If I'm no asset, then doesn't that automatically mean there will be no distribution of $$? I guess I won't stop freaking out until it's over. It just seems weird to me...

Same problem here - no report from trustee - not closed yet - over 4 months - nothing.

Sorry to hijack the post and make it all about me

But my 341 was yesterday, and Pacer shows report of no distribution as of this AM. I am gathering that's a good thing? I am still searching threads to find out exactly what that means.

Ouch! That's not what I wanted to hear. Are you pro se or did you use an attorney? Have you/your attorney called? I'm going to call my attorney's office this afternoon and see if they are worried about it. I'm hoping AngelinaCat is right and it's just a clerical error. We also reaffirmed and I wonder if that isn't slowing things down-did you reaffirm anything?

Filed with a lawyer - did not reaffirm, but paying through - haven't called yet but need to do so. Maybe it just got lost in the mountain of BKs! Nothing on Pacer and I am out about $50 for looking so far.

Okay thanks for the reassurance. I was hoping I was understanding it correctly.

Grammy I am in the same boat basically....Been discharged since 7/08 and still not closed or heard anything from the trustee ?? I just quit checking Pacer everyday and check monthly now.... Attorney says to keep saving $$ for when they do call and I guess decide we are an asset case since we are over the Fl exemptions. It must be quite a mountain of BK's over there ??
