Good point. I have yet to have an 11 as you describe, but I now know where to look should one come my way. All the same, there is a sweet feeling of success when an 11 gets confirmed, and Dennis' 55 is a lot of confirmed plans. Best Regards,
Link Schrader, Attorney

Don't forget that confirming a Chapter 11 is not the only successful outcome, except perhaps in Super 13s. Sometimes it is counterproductive, in fact. For example, when it is better to sell the company in a sweetheart deal and then just dismiss the case, but you need time (which is why you file the 11) and the purchaser wants to buy free and clear of liens, claims, etc.

Don't forget, I put a check box on the individual Ch 11 plan to add the addendum. Confirmed my 55th Ch 11 today before the lovely Bluebond.

Please do not let creditors intimidate you into striking the Addendum. The new and revised rules do not provide you or your client with as much information as the Addendum. If your plan has been confirmed with the Addendum intact, and the creditors are not providing the statements, file a request for an OSC and ask for attorney fees.

US Bank has been filing objections to confirmation stating that the revised Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure 3001(c) and 3002.1 render the Addendum improper and superfluous. This is incorrect. US Bank has yet to understand the ruling by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals (adopting the ruling made by the BAP) regarding the Addendum.

It also requires the mortgage creditor/servicer to send upon written request quarterly reports. If creditor fails to send the statements or requested quarterly reports, the debtor or trustee can request from the court an OSC as to why the creditor is not complying with the confirmation order. Several creditors appealed the Addendum first to the BAP and then to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals and lost. The ruling is quite lengthy but the Appellate Court stated in its ruling that TILAs Regulation Z requires the servicer to provide a final payout report, which would require the servicer to have access to information on all costs and balance, not only those specified by the Addendum, and to provide that payout report on five days notice. Id. at 37.

These rules to not prevent the debtors from requesting payoff statements from creditors under Regulation Z. Therefore, these rules do not affect the requirement of the Addendum.

These fees have not been subjected to the reasonable test. In the case of In re Vu (on appeal to the BAP), US Bank made this argument and Judge Ahart disagreed. Creditor stated that the cost were due to the fact that an attorney would have to review every statement and report. The Judge stated that he did not see why an attorney would have to review every statement and report. He found that the fee was not reasonable.

Addendum

So far Judges Zurzolo, Kaufman, Ahart and Jury have approved the Addendum over Creditor's objection. Judge Peter Carroll has stated that he does not like the Addendum and was one of the only Judges to vote against it. However, he is taking our brief under submission. The Judges in Woodland Hills have also taken briefs under submission. I have no idea if the Addendum has been challenged in Santa Ana but I believe that Judge Kwan was on the committee that wrote the Addendum. Therefore, it is important to keep up the fight.
Has anyone who has had a case confirmed with the Addendum recieved mortgage statements yet?
