Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California
how long to file an objection to confirmation of plan for a chapter 13 plan debtor has lied and commited fraud and not filed in good faith.
2 Answer from Attorneys
Your objection must be served on the Debtor, his or her attorney and the Chapter 13 Trustee, then filed at least 7 days prior to the Meeting of Creditors. Your argument against confirmation must be in the form of legal argument as to why the Debtor is not entitled to have his plan confirmed - it cannot be unsupported, generalized statements such as the Debtor lied or committed fraud - you have to allege and provide evidence which support your claim. You will also want to attend the Meeting of Creditors and raise your objection in person with the Chapter 13 Trustee running that meeting, as it will prevent the case from going to confirmation unopposed.
