Electronic Filing of Claims
A CM/ECF login is not required to docket claims electronically. All claims in any case where there is no Claims Agent assigned are accepted through the Court's website. The Court strongly encourages the e-filing of claims.
- The name and complete address of the creditor must appear on the claim form. If an attorney is filing the claim on behalf of a creditor, the attorney should also enter his/her name and address. The name and title, if any, of the person authorized to file the claim is required on the claim form.
- Electronically filed claims can be filed, amended and withdrawn on the Court's website.
- The Official Form B410 (Proof of Claim) is automatically generated and allows the attachment of supporting documentation.
- The final claim form can be printed or saved electronically and assigns a claim number to the filing.
