UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS

NOTICE TO LITIGANTS

You have been named as a defendant in an adversary proceeding, the outcome of

which could affect your bankruptcy discharge. Even if you have already received a

discharge, this is a serious matter that you should not ignore.

 Individual litigants are entitled to appear without an attorney and represent themselves in

the Bankruptcy Court. However, the rules can be quite technical and failure to comply with the

rules can have severe consequences. Before deciding to appear on your own, you should consider

consulting an attorney. If you were represented in your chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy case by

counsel, you should notify that attorney that you have been named as a defendant.

 If you cannot afford an attorney, you may be eligible for free legal representation through

Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas (LANWT) or the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program (DVAP). To

determine if you are eligible, you must apply for legal representation at a regularly−scheduled

neighborhood legal clinic. In addition, if you were recently represented by an attorney in a chapter

7 or 13 case, you should notify that attorney immediately.

 Upon application at a neighborhood legal clinic, you will be screened for eligibility based

on your current income and the availability of any other assets to pay for legal services. If it is

determined that you are eligible, an attorney may be found who will represent you without

payment of attorneys' fees. Please note that, even if you are eligible, you may still be responsible

for the payment of costs, such as court reporter fees, deposition transcripts, court transcripts,

postage and copies.

 On the last page of this notice, you will find a list of neighborhood legal clinics, their

locations, and the times they meet. When you make contact with DVAP or LANWT, please have

your copy of the summons and complaint with you, as well as a copy of any Schedule of Assets

and Liabilities and Statement of Financial Affairs filed in your bankruptcy case.
