Review the recommendations. I would like to resolve all of the issues 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.

“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 find below an encrypted pdf file with my case recommendations for the Wichita Chapter 13 Confirmation Hearings scheduled for 2:30 pm on Tuesday, July 14, 2026. The encryption key will be sent by separate email.

Please review the recommendations and the Objections, if any. Staff Attorney Karin and I are out of the office at the NACTT 61st Annual Seminar the entire previous week and will have limited availability. Please email me, and the assigned analyst in my office if known, during the week with your responses or comments to the Confirmation notes. I will be available Monday, July 13 to discuss cases, but will not be able to change the announce lists. After the deadline has passed, I will upload the “Announce” lists to the Court and to this Blog. Cases will be either ready to Confirm, OconMod, Continue or Call.

*** 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).

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

Judge Somers has announced that he will be remote for the Docket. I will be remote as well. I will also be out of my office this Thursday and Friday before Memorial Day Weekend, so I will not be available to discuss cases on the phone before next Tuesday the 26th. I hopefully will be available on the 26th to discuss and resolve issues, but that also will not be in time to take a given case off of Wednesday’s docket. If you have issues that we can resolve via email, or will agree to the trustee’s recommendation in a particular case, please send me that by email.
