WRITTEN INFORMATION NOTICES ISSUED BY BANK OF AMERICA TO THE CHAPTER 13 STANDING TRUSTEE

The Office of Douglas W. Neway, Chapter 13 Standing Trustee, is receiving significant numbers of written informational notices from Bank of America ("BOA") each month about Chapter 13 debtors with BOA home loans pursuant to BOA's agreement with the Federal Trade Commission.  The Trustee understands that these notices are also mailed directly to each Chapter 13 debtor.  Based upon the Trustee's concerns about privacy and the recently amended Bankruptcy Rules addressing the proper procedures for post petition changes to mortgage claims, this office will take no action upon them.  When the Trustee's office receives such notices, they will be destroyed and discarded to maintain the confidentiality of debtor information.  Please contact the Trustee's office if you have any questions.
