Federal Rules Changes on Secured Proof of Claims
November 2011
Federal Rules Changes on Secured Proof of Claims - Live Program in Denver
Program Description:
The Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure are changing on December 1, and the obligations for both sides are changing drastically along with them. The rules shift additional burdens to the secured creditors and new provisions allow involuntary waivers of rights based on technical defects in filing and prosecuting claims. Join us for a presentation on the changes to Rules 3001 and 3002 that every attorney practicing bankruptcy law must understand to avoid sanctions for failing to timely and completely comply with the new requirements. The presentation will focus on the changes to the forms and rules affecting proofs of claims filed by secured creditors on the principal place of residence of debtors, including the information required in the initial proofs of claims, supplements, the all-important timelines of supplements, and the final cure payment.
Presented by Michael Suchoparek and Susan Hendrick
