Bankruptcies
Whenever the court is notified that a party to civil litigation has filed bankruptcy, the court will require copies of the following documents:
filed petition in bankruptcy including filing date and case number; and
schedule of creditors showing that the debt forming the subject matter of the civil action is listed.
The filing of a bankruptcy petition immediately stays all state court proceedings by operation of federal law.
