Bankruptcy Law - AMENDMENT

Expert: Mark J. Markus- California Bankruptcy Attorney - 10/2/2009

Question
I FILED A BK A FEW MONTHS AGO WHICH IS NOT DISCHARGE AS OF YET,LATELY I RECV'ED PHONE CALLS FROM CREDITORS THAT I FORGOT 2 MENTION IN THE BK - QUESTION DO I HAVE 2 FILE A AMENDMENT THE LAWYER WANTS XTRA MONIES FOR THIS

Answer
That depends on what chapter you filed and the laws of the jurisdiction where your case is filed. In California, there would be no need to file any amendments in a no-asset chapter 7 case. Of course, the safest thing to do is just file an amendment (certainly can't hurt) but it may not be necessary in your jurisdiction. At the very least you should mail a copy of the case commencement notice to the omitted creditors.
