objection to an unsecured claim in chapter 13 with
Your answer is implying something which I find very interesting.
If the case is later converted to Chapter 7, does the time to object to
nondischargeability reset or is it too late? Meaning, do creditors then get
a second bite at the apple since the first meeting of creditors in the
Chapter 7 has not yet occurred?
If your answer is that creditor should have filed a nondischargeability
action in the Chapter 13 and now it's too late, which is what I believe you
will say, then my follow up question is the following.
Suppose there is a meeting of creditors in the Chapter 13 case set for
3/1/2015 (meaning deadline to object would be 60 days later: 5/30/2015).
But the case is converted to Chapter 7 and the meeting is taken off
calendar and rescheduled for the Chapter 7 Trustee on 4/1/2015 (deadline to
object is therefore, June 1, 2015 [May 31 is a Sunday]).
FRBP 4007 says "... a complaint to determine the dischargeability of a debt
under 523(c) shall be filed no later than 60 days after the *FIRST DATE
SET* for the meeting of creditors under 341(a) ..." (emphasis added.)
The first date set is the one in the Chapter 13 case! The deadline is
strictly construed and can make a huge difference in certain cases. Any
idea how it would play out?
