Rule 2011 Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure

Rule 2011 of the Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure is about Evidence That a Debtor Is a Debtor in Possession or That a Trustee Has Qualified. It is under Part II (Officers and Administration; Notices; Meetings; Examinations; Elections; Attorneys and Accountants) of the Rules.

(a) The Clerk’s Certification. Whenever evidence is required to prove that a debtor is a debtor in possession or that a trustee has qualified, the clerk may so certify. The certification constitutes conclusive evidence of that fact.

(b) Trustee’s Failure to Qualify. If a person elected or appointed as trustee does not qualify within the time prescribed by § 322(a), the clerk must so notify the court and the United States trustee.
