08/07/2009 — Changes to Notice of Conversion Docket Event for Joint Debtors - In cases with Joint Debtors, if only one debtor is converting to another chapter, we are required to collect a fee to split the cases into two separate cases. To collect this fee, we have made changes to the Notice of Conversion docket event that will appear only in cases with joint debtors. During the docketing process of a Notice of Conversion filed by the debtor, a question will appear:
Is only one debtor converting? Use y or n to answer _____________.
If the filer inserts y for yes, then another screen will show the total filing fee. For example, in a Chapter 13 case with joint debtors, if one debtor is converting to a Chapter 7, the total fee is currently $299.00 and includes both the conversion fee of $25.00 and the split case fee of $274.00, which is the amount the filer will charged. If the filer inserts n for no, then another screen will show only the conversion fee.
