I know my attorney requested a new date, and it was given in the first paragraph above, but is there something I need to be concerned about here...who has to do what, if anything?

Thanks for listening

This is a procedural thing for your attorney. There is nothing for you to do. Hopefully your attorney is on top of the ball. It looks like he asked for a continuance of the 341 Meeting without another procedurally required document.

The procedure is probably that the Trustee's consent is required for this type of motion and that the consent must allow for the extension of the dischargeability date. So on the one hand, your 60 days is probably going to become longer. On the other hand, your 341 Meeting is being moved.

What is your lawyer up to anyway?

If your attorney has requested a change in date, then all of the creditors on your creditor matrix must be notified of the change in date so that they will have their 60 days required in order to file objections. (They rarely do.)

This is a motion that was presented to the judge, and must be agreed to by him. Apparently your attorney failed to file something with this motion. He should have corrected it by now.

Call and ask him first thing tomorrow. Ordinarilly you should not have to worry about things like this, as copies of everything that happens before the court in your case will go to all parties involved and be posted on PACER. But knowing how inept our attorney turned out to be, you do need to ask about it.

He had told me back in November that he might have to request a change for the 341 date in case it fell during the week he had scheduled a vacation, which I guess it did.

That's kind of what I thought they were trying to say in the notice -- they sure found a bizarre way to try and get that across!

I'll call him and make sure that he will take care of it.
