Usually, the only formal proceeding at which a debtor must appear is the first meeting of creditors.  The meeting is informally called a “341 meeting” because Title 11 Section 341 of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the debtor attend the meeting at which the trustee shall, and creditors may, question the debtor about their assets and debts.  Creditors listed on a debtor’s schedules shall receive notice of the date and time of, and instructions for attending, the 341 meeting.

As of October 1, 2023, chapter 7, 12, and 13 trustees for the Southern District of Indiana shall conduct 341 meetings virtually through Zoom.  The list of trustee meeting IDs, passcodes, and dedicated phone numbers is included below.  More information is available from the US Trustee Program.
