You shouldn't keep any surrises from your attorney. If you have money in the CU account you have to list it as an asset.Well, I did. Every one of 'em. Mostly I remember the last one. The wild finish.

You can open a new checking account with a small amount.
when the trustee asks at your 341 if anything has changed just tell him/her you opened a new checking account. and hand him any statements for that account.
If you do it before you file yes let your lawyer know he can list it and then you don't need to say anything to the trustee.Chapter 7 07/30/2008
