Message for Debtors affected by the government shutdown from Russell Simon

January 08, 2019 2:17 PM | Christopher Smith (Administrator)

Dear BASIL Members,

Please see the below message emailed on 1-7-19 from Russell Simon:

"All:

My office is sympathetic to those debtors whose income has been (or will be) affected by the recent government shutdown. Should an impacted debtor receive a 45-day notice of default with regard to plan payments, and if that debtor was current with plan payments prior to the shutdown, please contact my office immediately upon receipt of such Notice to devise a resolution. My goal is to avoid motions to dismiss and keep cases afloat until such time as the shutdown is ended.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

Regards,

Russell C. Simon"
