Bankruptcy Court Motion Response
Summary
In bankruptcy cases, if a trustee files a motion to dismiss, you can request it be without prejudice, allowing for refiling. File responses with the court and serve opposing counsel. If a motion for reconsideration is denied, you have 14 days to appeal using Form 417A. For fee waivers in Chapter 13, use Form B 3B. To have an appeal heard in District Court, check the appropriate box on Form 417A. Address fraud claims in your appeal brief, not the Notice of Appeal. To stay eviction execution, file a motion and confirm its status with the court where it was filed.Full Conversation

The court has denied your motion for adversary proceeding, evidentiary hearing, and preliminary injunction to reinstate the automatic stay.
