Strangely, she has lots of equity and little secured debt (around $600k).
Are there any debt minimums to file a Chapter 11? There was a third party
investor/broker which bought the property which will make it tricky. Thanks
for your help.

Thank you, Dennis. It sounds much softer when it doesn't come from a cynic.

Chech with foreclosue trustee to see if they have A return receipt for the notice. About 1000 people have told me, over the years, they got no notice of the Trustee's sale. I never believe them. Sales are published and clients mailboxes are then filled with foreclosure notices from every person in the county who wants to make a buck stopping the sale.
Very likely client got notice. If so, have client take the $200000.

First thought: If she has several properties, is she eligible for Chapter
13? She may have to be in Chapter 11 where there is not the same time
pressure to confirm a plan. Second, plan can provide for payments to be
"sequestered" per Civil Code Sect. 1500 (ask Esbin if this is not the
correct section number). Third, was bank the buyer, or was there a third
party who bought the property - much more difficult to upset the rights of
an innocent third party. Fourth, find an active member of NACA to assist
you.

I have a new client who contacted me a day before the trial on her unlawful
detainer. Her home was foreclosed and sold at a trustee's sale in December.
I filed an emergency Chapter 13 today which I assume will stay the UD trial.
She never received notice of the trustee's sale until the new owner knocked
on her door. In fact, the lender accepted payments from her pursuant to a
trial loan modification agreement after the property was sold. I believe
that I have several causes of action to allege in an AP against the lender
