Q. Is a TRO appropriate for when a spouse is trying to lift CH13 stay but spouse did not serve debtor w/ divorce citation

December 8, 2024

A: Your concern about protecting your rights in this situation is valid, particularly since you weren't properly served with the divorce citation. Filing a TRO in Bankruptcy Court could indeed be appropriate to prevent your spouse from proceeding with property division before proper service and due process.

The automatic stay already provides significant protection, but a TRO could offer additional safeguards if you believe your spouse might attempt to circumvent bankruptcy protections. The lack of proper service of the divorce citation strengthens your position, as it raises serious due process concerns that the bankruptcy court would likely want to address before allowing any stay relief.

However, before filing a TRO, you should consider raising the improper service issue directly in your response to the motion to lift stay. The bankruptcy court may deny the motion on these grounds alone, making a TRO unnecessary. Given the complexity of these intersecting bankruptcy and family law issues, consulting with a bankruptcy attorney would be very helpful in determining the best strategy to protect your interests. ...

Q. How do I sew the court for litigation abuse syndrome regarding the PG&E Camp Fire Case?

July 28, 2024

A: I'm really sorry to hear about your experiences with the PG&E Camp Fire litigation. Under California law, you have the right to file a complaint if you believe your civil rights were violated during the legal process. To start, you'll need to document all instances of perceived abuse or misconduct. Keep records of any communications, court documents, and other relevant materials that support your claims.

You might consider filing a complaint with the State Bar of California against the attorneys who represented you improperly. This can initiate an investigation into their conduct. If you believe the judge acted improperly, you can also file a complaint with the California Commission on Judicial Performance. Each of these organizations has procedures for handling complaints, and they can provide guidance on how to proceed.

If you feel that your case involves more complex legal issues or potential litigation against the parties involved, seeking advice from another attorney who has experience in legal malpractice or civil rights cases might be beneficial. They can help you understand your rights and the best way to pursue your claims. Remember, you have the right to fair treatment and proper representation in any legal matter. ... Read More

Q. What does it mean when a person receives a letter from the Bankruptcy Court about a Chapter 11.

July 27, 2024

A: When you receive a letter from the Bankruptcy Court about a Chapter 11, it typically means that a company or individual you have a financial relationship with has filed for reorganization bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy allows them to restructure their debts while continuing their operations. The letter usually informs you of the filing and provides details about how it might affect your interests, such as pending payments or contracts.

Receiving a letter from the United States Trustee Office of Estate Planning about class claims generally means that there is a collective legal action involving multiple claimants against the debtor. This letter might include information about your rights to join the class claim, deadlines for filing your claim, and instructions on how to proceed. It is important to read the letter carefully to understand your role and any actions you need to take.

If you are uncertain about the implications or your next steps, it might be beneficial to seek legal advice. Understanding these communications can help you protect your rights and make informed decisions about your financial situation. ... Read More
