Topics covered will include how to handle a member’s bankruptcy filing, whether in Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, including filing of proofs of claims, reaffirmation agreements, objections to discharge, objections to plan confirmation, and relief from stay.  Also covered will be collection activities, including filing of judgment liens, repossession of personal property collateral, disposition of repossessed collateral, and disclosure hearings.
