Procedure for completing Chapter 20 case
Mark:
What are you trying to accomplish with the ch 20? Are you just trying to keep the creditors from adding back on interest that accrued during the plan?
If you want to do that, do all of the things you need to get a clerk to decide the case is ready to close. Do the second course, and file the cert of compliance.
Nothing else will get the case closed.

"Chapter 20" case? (This is a Chapter 13 case where there will
be no discharge).
The debtor has paid 100% of all claims early. I contacted Nancy
Curry's office to ask if they needed anything to process the
closing of the case and after spending 20 minutes on hold, was
instructed by someone there that I needed to do some research.
So, here I am doing my research.
My specific questions are:
1. Does the debtor need to take the postpetition financial
management course? (I don't see any reason why she would,
but.....)
2. Do I need to file the debtor's "Certificate of Compliance and
Application for Discharge"? (Also doesn't make sense in a Chapter
20 case).
3. If we do nothing, will the Trustee's office eventually close
out the case? I suppose I can file a Motion to Close the case,
but I figured the Trustee might have her own procedures she likes
to use.
How do you all handle this?
