Re: creditor in bankruptcy suit
What's the claim for? Do they owe you money? Have you had your new home inspected for a possible construction defects lawsuit? You might want to pay a visit to a bankruptcy lawyer to have the form you received looked at before you send anything to the court.
Failure to file a claim by the claims deadline could cause you to lose money or valuable rights.

There may be money available for distribution to you. You should have an attorney assist you with the proof of claim form and timely file it with the court.
