Text: 3 The trustee convened a meeting of creditors, pursuant to 11 U.S.C. S 341(a), on September 8, 1995. The meeting was continued to September 22 and then to October 27, 1995. At the conclusion of the October 27 meeting, the trustee announced: Time's been noted at 12:32 p.m. This 341(a) meeting in John Douglas Smith is hereby adjourned until further notice. Thank you very much. No further notice was ever given and no subsequent meeting ever took place under Chapter 11. The appellees objected to Smith's exemptions on June 19, 1996, almost eight months later. Smith filed a motion to dismiss these objections on the ground that they were not timely filed, which the bankruptcy court denied. The bankruptcy court also sustained the Creditors' objection to Smith's exemption of Bellwood. Smith appealed this decision on November 12, 1996.
