List of Secured Creditors (Chapter 11)

General Information

• In a Chapter 11 case where the filer is only filing the minimum required documents, a List of Creditors who have or claim to have a secured claim must be filed with the voluntary petition. Failure to submit the above required items at the time of filing or within seven days thereafter may result in dismissal of the case pursuant to S.D. Ind. B-1017-1(b). Any request for an extension of time to file the other documents required by this rule must comply with Fed.R.Bankr.P. 1007.
• The List of Secured Creditors need only be filed when filing an emergency petition, and only when Schedule D along with a declaration under penalty of perjury is not being filed along with the petition.
• The List of Creditors may be filed in the same PDF as the Petition, or filed separately using the step-by-step instructions below.

Filing requirements 

• Use of the Court's sample form is recommended.
• The List of Secured Creditors must be signed.
• If filing a Schedule D instead of the sample form, a signed Declaration Under Penalty of Perjury (Official Form B106) must accompany the Schedule D.
