I think my Trustee screwed me over!
So, there was a trustee information sheet to be fileld out to be bring with the meeting of creditors. in there I had listed $1k of earned wages, that had not yet been paid to me. I also listed about $20 in cash and like $14 in the bank.
At the meeting he demanded $1,065 be turned over, the EXACT amount I placed on the info sheet as wages not yet paid to be, but earned.
I came here afterward, and learned that 75% of those wages, after taxes and insurnance were exempt under the statute.
I filed an appeal and included the new calculation to be like $300.
Had a phone conference with the judge and the trustee.
Trustee said I could amend schedule C to exempt the wages(true, I didn't list earned wages), but even after I did that I still had $417 in holiday pay and another $218 in the bank that I listed, and that I couldnt deduct insurance and that really the new total is like $950 now.
So to save $50 I need to amend schedule C.
Judge was "sweet and kind" not other words.
The problem here, if you didnt catch it,is this aint true. My paycheck stub showed like $1800 in vacation time accrual, and I never listed ANY vacation time on the trustee sheet. I certainly did not have $218 in the bank, I listed $14.
Its like he made up stuff to still keep me owing around the same.
Is he screwing me outta $700?????????????
Is accrued vacation time "earned wages" in Colorado?
There is no copy of the trustee sheet, I didn't make a copy as it was hand printed(grrrr on me). I assume I can ask for one? What if I am right? I can provide a bank statement showing my pitiful balance on the date of the creditors meeting.
I dont want to rock the boat as i did this pro se and didnt flub one thing thanks to all your folks, hate to lose $700 for nothing especially cause we just found out we are expecting a baby now, but dont want to put anything in jeopardy of this thing closing in early January.
