Judge/Trustee Assignment

  1. Select Bankruptcy > Judge/Trustee Assignment
  2. Note the assignment for each case
    • Screen appears to display the case number, case name, chapter, 341 meeting information, Judge assigned to case, and the Trustee assigned to case.
    • This automatically creates a docket entry for the meeting of creditors. 
  3. Notes to Remember: 
    • Creditors must be uploaded to the bankruptcy case before the Judge/Trustee Assignment can issue a report. To add creditors, refer to the procedure,“Uploading Creditor Matrix”. 
    • The Judge / Trustee Assignment attempts to schedule all your cases together, at the same time. If your unscheduled cases will be held in different locations (ie: North
      Platte and Gering), the scheduler will fail. 
      Steps to Avoid This:
      • Chapter 11 cases: Chapter 11 cases do not receive 341 meetings nor trustee until the U.S. Trustee’s Office assigns one. 
      • Run the Judge / Trustee Assignment and then Continue with the cases for the next location. 
      • Enter all your cases for one location
