State Specific Question About: DELAWARE (DE)

I have a judgement against a tenant I evicted 1.5 years ago. I attached her wages but shortly after, she stopped working at that company. For the past year I have been trying to collect through the court but she has moved several times. She is now filing bankruptcy and I am to attend a meeting of creditors next week but will be out of the country. I contacted the Trustee, the court and nobody will tell me if I can send someone in my place or what will happen if I don't go to the hearing. The debt is $6500 so I do not want to miss my chance at getting it back. I need to know what rights I have now that she filed bankruptcy and what I can do about not being able to attend the meeting of creditors. --167.112.xxx.x

it probably doesn't matter whether or not you show up.

Did she file chapter 7 or 13? if it's 13, you will get your money paid back over a 5 year period. if it's 7, unless you can prove some type fraud, you're probably out of luck.

Personally, I would pay an attorney for advice just so I was sure I was covering all my bases.

Did you submit a Proof of Claim yet? --72.70.xxx.xxx

She filed chapter 13 & I just printed out the proof of claim, so I will get that filled out. Thank you. --167.112.xxx.x

I attended one this kind of meeting and I do not understood it. Went very fast and no other credits (or not many?) attended --97.91.xxx.xx

You will probably not be prejudiced by not attending, but I would send a representative. Even if just to write down what happens and to report to you.

Katie,

Look for a form you can fill out stating your claim against them. ALWAYS file that.

We just got a small check from the BK court as our part of their BK.

Sometimes, judges do not let them off the hook. Rare, but it can happen.

That paper to file is free. --67.175.xx.xxx
