Please excuse me if I'm posting this in the wrong forum.
I have been waiting 3 days for the paralegal to get back with me so I can even ask this.

But, I have a cat rescue group. I have a checking account under that name, using a EIN number, not my ss#. I am not incorporated, and my 501 (c) 3 is pending.

Does anyone know if the creditors can freeze this account?? I have not received any *summons* letters but hubby has.

Thanks,
Toomuch

Is it like a charity or something like that? Like where you & others make donations for the rescue group?

I have read where tithing & charity was forbidden under 2005 laws & some people were not allowed to donate to churches or charity in Ch. 13 cases. I am not sure if they have that worked out yet for the people.
I do wonder how that would work if it was other people donating to a charity or rescue fund that you are in charge of. It might also depend on how much is in the account. This is more of an attorney (not so much the paralegal) question I think because they will know by now.
I also read where some judges in Utah would allow some tithing & charity to continue in BK.

It is a good question.

While I cannot answer your question regarding the account, please let me tell you THANK YOU VERY MUCH for caring for cats, recsuing them, and taking care of them. As I am sitting here typing this my cat Tommie is sitting in my lap, playing with the computer mouse. Cats deserve to be loved and taken care of. Keep up the good work.
