Chapter 7—Notice That a Presumption of Abuse Has

Arisen Under § 707(b) (a) NOTICE TO CREDITORS. When a presumption of abuse under § 707(b) arises in a Chapter 7 case of an individual debtor with pri- marily consumer debts, the clerk must, within 10 days after the petition is filed, so notify the creditors in accordance with Rule 2002. (b) DEBTOR’S STATEMENT. If the debtor does not file a statement indicating whether a presumption has arisen, the clerk must, within 10 days after the petition is filed, so notify creditors and indicate that further notice will be given if a later-filed statement shows that the presumption has arisen. If the debtor later files such a statement, the clerk must promptly notify the creditors. (Added Apr. 23, 2008, eff. Dec. 1, 2008; amended Apr. 2, 2024, eff. Dec. 1, 2024.)
