    341 yesterday and no show attorney

    Well, the good news is we had our 341 yesterday, and it was quick and relatively painless!! Trustee asked us the usual questions, read the forms before signing etc.. He did specifically mention, "i see you have student loans, and you know you will continue to be paying those -- I said, yes, and he wanted to know if I graduated/and from what school. He seemed pleased to know that I had earned a b.s. in marketing. We knew going into this chapter 7 that our attorney hires local counsel for the 341s, as we are 2+ hours from the U.S. court house, and that we'd be meeting a local attorney in the hallway before the 341. We arrived 45 minutes early for a 9:30 341, and waited and waited, Meanwhile, other attorneys/clients were coming/going all the time. Finally at 9:29 a.m. I asked an attorney just waiting with a client, what to do if our attorney is a no-show. He said he'd be glad to help us out, but we needed to talk to the trustee about it. So, when our name was called, our "new" attorney went in with us, explained the situation to the trustee, and he was fine with the change, as long as we were. Since, I had read everything on these boards for more than a year, and knew that we should be an easy no-asset chapter 7, we went ahead with the 341 meeting. So, we left the 341 meeting with the trustee saying, "no asset case" good luck in the future. My husband called our original attorney's office, and they had already received a call from our "sub" attorney...the word we got was that the local hired attorney simply forgot to come........

    That local attorney needs 20 lashes. Luckily, it all really comes down to you anyway. Welcome to the 60-day club!
