Overview:
A debtor is protected from a utility company cutting off service because of a bankruptcy filing. However, the trustee or debtor must provide adequate assurance of payment of services to the utility company for services provided after the date of the petition. On request of a party in interest the court may order modification of the amount of assurance.
This filing should be accompanied by the Motion, Notice of Motion, and Proposed Order. When required by Local Bankruptcy Rule 9013-3, a Certificate of Service must also be filed.
