pro se Nebraska

[LadyInTheRed]

You've received replies from two of the more knowlegable members of this board and have not answered their questions. Bumping your thread is not going to help you get answers when you aren't willing to provide more info.

You refer to Nebraska Rule 4001-1 which has to do with motions for relief from stay, not reopening a case. Your reference to an essay makes no sense. If you have an easy yes or no question, you aren't doing a very good job of asking it.

Let's back up, why did you not get the paperwork turned in?

One, this forum has good content, but it is not a bankruptcy coaching service; also, we are not here to help you take advantage of the system; which, at least without more info, sounds like what might be going on here. The petition is not that difficult for a simple case.

Also, what "essay"?

The dismissal for a deficient petition is not an answerable event, it is a final order; you simply need to refile. But this time, you better have the petition correct; or you may get branded as a serial filer and could eventually lose the ability to get a bankruptcy discharge. (very bad outcome).

I think someone needs to do some serious homework.

Why would you re-open the bankruptcy case? Why not just refile? Also, if it has been LESS than 10-14 days (I think it's 14 days now in the rule), you can file a Motion to Vacate Dismissal or a Motion to Reconsider.

When you file pro se you really need to be on top of the paperwork and have access to PACER. You need to stay on top of everything.

When was your case dismissed? Under which chapter did you file? And, what forms were missing?

I've been dismissed due to lack of paperwork...my question, if it can be answered, is when one is attempting to re-open their BK case. Here it is, does my essay, the one to be sent to all creditors and turned in to federal court, qualify as the form that pertains to NE rule 4001-1 or is there another form to be filled out as well? I have searched everywhere and can't afford a lawyer. Any help on this easy yes or no question would be greatly appreciated.
