Bankruptcy Question

[btrlwyrneded]

If the trustee told you to file a claim, and you chose to ignore that recommendation, there's no way to re-open the case, there is a strict claims deadline, and you did not meet it.

On the other hand, definitely report the crap he's been doing, it could get his case dismissed, in which case the BK discharge is no longer in effect, and he still owes you the $.

Best of luck with getting the retirement $. I hope it works out for you.

Thank you so much! I was afraid of this fact too. My attorney thought it was a bad idea to file the claim in the bankruptcy court because he didn't think there would be anything to get. At the time I didn't know my lawyer was going to lose everything for me.
