For those in search of the audio and transcript of the bankruptcy creditors meeting held on 3/5/2012, both are available on the Creditors Meeting II page.


Edit: Just to reiterate, I respectfully request that users of this site not post contentious comments on JM's sites. This is for several reasons. First of all it does not further our cause one bit; in fact it may detract from it. Secondly JM is 100% in control of her sites, not us, and will use anything that we give her to her advantage. Third and finally, it drives additional traffic to her sites and this is in direct opposition to our intent. Thank you.

Segment 2 of the creditors meeting is now available via the Creditors Meeting II page.

Many thanks to reader tinycandi for sorting out and explaining some of the confusion around the amended bankruptcy documents that were filed on 4/12/2012. It now seems more likely that the McKinney's attorney incorrectly listed Chapter 13 on the front page of the documents, when in fact the filing still seems to be for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. In addition, the Becker property is being listed as future debt repayment, similar to the IRS debt, not as an expected monthly expense.

Bankruptcy Revision

Putting up a new post to restart the comment count.

Amended (and previously missing) bankruptcy documents were filed with PACER on 4/12 and are now available on the Bankruptcy Documents page. Of note is a switch from Chapter 7 to Chapter 13 and an increase in the amount of income reported for the filing period. In addition the Becker property payment is now being used to calculate monthly expenditures, resulting in a negative net income calculation.

Segment 1 of the creditors meeting held on 3/5/2012 is now available as a transcript. Segments 2 and 3 will be added as soon as they are finished.

Edit I:
Can we please tone the rhetoric down a bit? There is a bit of verified information, a lot of speculation and even some misinformation flying around lately, which does not help our cause in the least. Thank you.
