You could likely submit it exparte (manually) with a POS and use return envelopes for service list

I just located him, and would like to use the services of the U.S. Marshals to garnish his wages. I called their office and spoke to a very helpful person who told me that I had to get Judge Zurzolo to issue a writ of execution. I assume I can do this by motion. I would like to keep the costs down. Since the case is closed, do I have to file a motion to reopen it first, or can I file the motion for the writ without reopening the case. I havent found anything in the rules or case law that is on point.

> Why do you say there would be nothing to pay in the Chapter 13 if the discharge order were to stand? It's still the same case. It's been 15 years since I had a case like this, and had to research the issue but Judge Riblet granted a motion to convert from Chapter 7 to 13 3 weeks after discharge and specifically delineated in her order that revocation of the discharge was not necessary. I recall a citation being provided but I long since shredded the file and it does not appear the order can retrieved from Pacer. The case was In Re Arnold 9:00-bk-13214-RR

I made many offers after the Trustee responded, but they never took me up on oneor even paid attention or communicated. Then I saw a Request for Special Notice from an attorney who is a Trustee as well and I know that they were going to want the attorney employed in the case, which to me signaled an impasse if not an outright fight with a possible community property tracing.
