United States Bankruptcy Court: Northern District of Texas Date case filed for chapter: 7 3/14/24

Case number: 24−30737−swe7

Official Form 309A (For Individuals or Joint Debtors)

Notice of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Case −− No Proof of Claim Deadline 10/20

For the debtors listed above, a case has been filed under chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code. An order for relief has

been entered.

This notice has important information about the case for creditors, debtors, and trustees, including information about

the meeting of creditors and deadlines. Read all pages carefully.

The filing of the case imposed an automatic stay against most collection activities. This means that creditors generally may not

take action to collect debts from the debtors or the debtors' property. For example, while the stay is in effect, creditors cannot

sue, garnish wages, assert a deficiency, repossess property, or otherwise try to collect from the debtors. Creditors cannot

demand repayment from debtors by mail, phone, or otherwise. Creditors who violate the stay can be required to pay actual and

punitive damages and attorney's fees. Under certain circumstances, the stay may be limited to 30 days or not exist at all,

although debtors can ask the court to extend or impose a stay.

The debtors are seeking a discharge. Creditors who assert that the debtors are not entitled to a discharge of any debts or who

want to have a particular debt excepted from discharge may be required to file a complaint in the bankruptcy clerk's office within

the deadlines specified in this notice. (See line 9 for more information.)

To protect your rights, consult an attorney. All documents filed in the case may be inspected at the bankruptcy clerk's office at

the address listed below or through PACER (Public Access to Court Electronic Records at https://pacer.uscourts.gov).

The staff of the bankruptcy clerk's office cannot give legal advice.

To help creditors correctly identify debtors, debtors submit full Social Security or Individual Taxpayer Identification

Numbers, which may appear on a version of this notice. However, the full numbers must not appear on any document

filed with the court.

Do not file this notice with any proof of claim or other filing in the case. Do not include more than the last four digits of

a Social Security or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number in any document, including attachments, that you file

with the court.

10. Proof of claim

Please do not file a proof of claim unless

you receive a notice to do so.

will send you another notice telling you that you may file a proof of claim and stating the

deadline.

11. Creditors with a foreign address If you are a creditor receiving a notice mailed to a foreign address, you may file a motion

asking the court to extend the deadlines in this notice. Consult an attorney familiar with

United States bankruptcy law if you have any questions about your rights in this case.

12. Exempt property The law allows debtors to keep certain property as exempt. Fully exempt property will

not be sold and distributed to creditors. Debtors must file a list of property claimed as

exempt. You may inspect that list at the bankruptcy clerk's office or online at

https://pacer.uscourts.gov. If you believe that the law does not authorize an exemption

that the debtors claim, you may file an objection. The bankruptcy clerk's office must

receive the objection by the deadline to object to exemptions in line 9.
