Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Wyoming
Bankruptcy & Income Tax Refund
I filed a petition for chapter 13 bankruptcy in June of 2001. Went to the meeting of creditors in July. No creditors showed up.(All my debt was credit card related)I have been making my monthly payment to the trustee. I just need to know if the trustee is entitled to my income tax refund this year since I have not received a confirmation that my case was accepted (or denied). What happens if I get a direct deposit for my refund & just leave it in my account until they ask for it? Or should I just send it?

It depends on what the local rules, the plan, and the order of confirmation have to say. Your lawyer should be able to advise you.
