Problem: How to protect your business after violating an automatic stay
Find out exactly what happened.
Before you can figure out how to respond to a motion for sanctions alleging your business violated an automatic stay, you need to know exactly when and how the debtor was contacted.
Read the allegations the debtor has set forth in their motion for sanctions, and check those allegations against your own company records. OPTIONS:
- You also may be asked to write a letter to the debtor that simply explains what the debtor said to you. Make a copy of the letter and deliver it to the debtor using certified mail with returned receipt requested.
- At this stage give the debtor the benefit of the doubt. Assume everything they've stated in their motion is true, so you can figure out how to mitigate the potential damage to your business.
- This can help you determine if the debtor was actually contacting you. Try to identify an automatic stay that occurred while you were on the payroll.
- Most if not all automatic stays are public record. In other words, most automatic stays last at least one year and are recorded more commonly.

Answer: At this stage give the debtor the benefit of the doubt. Assume everything they've stated in their motion is true, so you can figure out how to mitigate the potential damage to your business.

Problem: How to harvest radishes
Give the radishes time to mature.
Many varieties mature quickly, only needing as few as three weeks before they are ready to harvest and eat. Allow the radishes in your garden to mature, but once they mature, harvest them quickly. OPTIONS:
- Choose bunches of your favorite radishes. This is a good time to pick about one week after the last frost of the season has passed.
- After they bloom, they will heat up and lay their eggs, which will fertilize your garden. Get them in early spring for best results.
- Spring radishes mature quickly and tend to degrade quickly if left in the ground for a few days longer than necessary. Winter radishes can be neglected a little more since they take longer to mature and longer to spoil in the ground.
- They will continue to grow, so wait until they mature rather than pick the biggest ones. Radishes that lose their leaves quickly are considered all-year-old plants.
Answer: Spring radishes mature quickly and tend to degrade quickly if left in the ground for a few days longer than necessary. Winter radishes can be neglected a little more since they take longer to mature and longer to spoil in the ground.
