Application to Reopen Bankruptcy Case

An Application to Reopen Bankruptcy Case is a legal document filed by a debtor or other interested party to request that a closed bankruptcy case be reopened for a specific purpose. The application must demonstrate that there is a valid reason for reopening the case, such as to correct an error in the case, to pursue a claim or asset that was not previously disclosed, or to address a post-discharge issue. The court will consider the application and may grant the request if it finds that reopening the case is necessary and appropriate. If the case is reopened, the court may set a new deadline for filing claims or objections, may appoint a new trustee, or may take other actions as necessary to address the issues raised in the application.
