Question about Case Summary in Pacer...

[deadbroke99]

If there is a US trustee under your trustee's name in case summary, does this mean they are looking at my case? It still says meansno.

There is always a U.S. Trustee assigned to every case. That is the U.S. Trustee for the Region. The court assigns a Standing Trustee (or Case Trustee), who does the routine monitoring, conducts the 341 Meetings, and handles most of the cases. The U.S. Trustee monitors these Trustees and the cases and steps in where required.

I was wondering the exact same thing about my case, because when I first looked at my case summary on PACER, it listed my "regular" TT and then listed UST, Los Angeles CA, etc. etc.

Very happy to know that it is the norm!

Mine looked a little different from the rest of yours... I had a US attorney listed as one of my creditors... is that the UST?

Many USTs were former United States Attorneys. They work for the Department of Justice, so... maybe they just messed up?

I dunno... I asked my attorney about it and he said it was probably just a lawyer for one of my creditors...but I see all my creditors listed on there already... I thought it was really wierd that a US Attorney was listed.
