Please find below an encrypted pdf file with my case recommendations for the Wichita Chapter 13 Confirmation Hearings scheduled for 2:30 pm on Thursday, March 12, 2026.

Please review the recommendations and the Objections, if any. I will be working to discuss reconciliation of my objections and to get cases confirmed until my cutoff on Tuesday at Noon. If you have a simple matter, or just a few cases on the docket, please send me an email as soon as you can.

*** PLEASE REMEMBER – Copies of the Debtors most recently filed income tax returns are due to me at least 7 days before the 341 hearing, AND pursuant to 11 USC 1308 the debtors previous four years of tax returns must be FILED WITH THE TAXING AUTHORITY not later than the day before the 341 hearing. The Trustee can extend that deadline, or the Debtor can request more time from the Court before the deadline expires, but if its not extended the Code says the case SHALL BE DISMISSED pursuant to 11 USC 1307(e).

My Cutoff to advise the Court of resolutions will be Tuesday at Noon before the docket. After the deadline has passed, I will upload the “announce” lists to this Blog. Cases will be either ready to Confirm, OconMod, Continue or Call.

“Call” means the Court will call the case unless a different agreement is reached before the deadline. “OconMod” means that I think we can circulate an agreed Order.

Attached below is a link to the encrypted pdf file with my case confirmation recommendations for the Topeka Chapter 13 Confirmation Hearings. The Chapter 13 Confirmation Docket will begin at 10:00 a.m., and the Chapter 7, 11 & 12 Miscellaneous Hearings will be at 11:15 a.m., or whenever the Court reaches the same. My cutoff to advise the Court of Resolutions for the announce lists will be 4:00 pm on the Monday before the Docket.

THE FILE IS PASSWORD PROTECTED. THE PASSWORD NEEDED TO OPEN THE FILE WILL BE PROVIDED BY SEPARATE EMAIL.

Review the recommendations. I would like to resolve all of the cases that can be resolved prior to the hearing. If you only have a few cases on the docket, please email your preferred response to the recommendation.

If there is uncertainty over an issue or recommendation, please also review the objection I have filed in the case. When appropriate I try to include sufficient detail in my objections so that the issues can be understood and addressed.

“Call” means the Court will call the case unless a different agreement is reached. “OconMod” means that I think we can circulate an agreed Order Modifying and Confirming.

Please take note that the Office of Carl B. Davis Chapter 13 Trustee is making a change to the manner in which plan payments are processed.

Historically, this office has utilized a payment cutoff date of the 20th day of each month to allow sufficient time for processing payments and making distributions in the first few days of the following month. Over time, this practice has become the minority approach among Chapter 13 trustees. Recent technology and process improvements now allow us to shorten the time required to process payments for distribution.

Beginning February 27, 2026, and continuing thereafter, end-of-month processing will extend through the last business day of each month. Payments received during the final three business days of a month will be held and processed during the following month’s processing period.

Debtor plan payments will be due thirty (30) days after the filing date, in the month following the filing of the case.

Attorney fee payments made by ACH and creditor checks will be disbursed no later than the 7th day of each month.
