NOTICE OF UNPAID FEES AND IMPENDING COLLECTION ACTIONS

 

            According to the accounts receivable records, you owe the above amount to the United States Trustee in unpaid quarterly fee charges. If you do not pay this debt or take other action described below before ______________, the United States Trustee will submit your debt to the U.S. Department of Treasury for further collection. Interest, penalties, and other charges for costs may be added to the amount you owe. Payment must be sent to the above address.

 

            Once your debt is sent to the Department of Treasury, Treasury will take all authorized collection actions, including reporting the debt to credit reporting agencies and engaging private collection agencies as necessary. The debt will also be submitted to the Treasury Offset Program which means the debt will be deducted from eligible payments that are owed to you by the federal government, including but not limited to tax refunds. The Treasury Offset Program is authorized by the Debt Collection Act of 1982 and the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996. You may not receive another notice before your payment is offset.

 

            Before we submit your debt to the Treasury Offset Program, we are required to tell you the following: (1) you may inspect and copy our records related to your debt; (2) you may request a review of our determination that you owe this debt; and (3) you may enter into a written repayment agreement if it is acceptable to the United States Trustee. If you are interested in these options, please send a written request to the above address.

 

            If you make or provide any knowingly false or frivolous statements, representations, or evidence, you may be liable for penalties under the False Claims Act (31 U.S.C. §§ 286, 287, 1001, and 1002), or other applicable statutes.

 

            If you have any questions about this letter or your rights, you should immediately contact your local field office at the above address.

Direction of Attorney for the Debtor

Concerning Contacts with Client Regarding Administrative Matters

 

 

In re:                           _________________________________________

 

Case Number:             _________________________________________

 

Part I : Purpose

 

            The United States Trustee is responsible for supervising the administration of cases under chapters 7, 11, 12, and 13 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. 28 U.S.C. §586. To fulfill this responsibility, the U.S. Trustee has issued Guidelines for Debtors-in-Possession. The Guidelines impose certain administrative and reporting responsibilities on chapter 11 debtors-in-possession. In addition, there are other requirements imposed by law, including a requirement to pay U.S. Trustee quarterly fees. The U.S. Trustee’s staff is available to assist debtors-in-possession in fulfilling these requirements. In addition, it is frequently necessary for members of the U.S. Trustee’s staff to contact debtors concerning missing documents, incomplete forms, and other administrative matters. Many debtors-in-possession and attorneys prefer that these administrative matters be handled directly between the debtor and the U.S. Trustee’s staff. Others prefer that all such contacts be made through counsel. We need to know how you and your client would like these matters to be handled.

 

                                                                        Part II: Direction

 

            _____ We direct that all contacts between the U.S. Trustee’s staff concerning the administrative requirements of the U.S. Trustee, including completion of operating reports, insurance, banking arrangements, payment and calculation of quarterly fees, may be made directly between the U.S. Trustee and the debtor-in-possession.

 

            _____ We direct that all contacts between the U.S. Trustee’s staff concerning this case, including all administrative matters, be conducted through counsel for the debtor-in-possession.
