Will my Filing Show Up in the Paper?

You are here: HOME>GEORGIA BANKRUPTCY LAW QUESTIONS>WILL NOTICE OF MY FILING BE PUBLISHED IN THE NEWSPAPER?

Will the Clerk of Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Georgia Release Information About my case for publication in the Newspaper or to my employer?
 

Although bankruptcy filings are a matter of public record, it is very unlikely that any information about your particular filing will appear in the newspaper. In 2003, for example, the Clerk of Court for the United States Bankruptcy Court Northern District of Georgia reported total filings of 46,748 cases. This works out to over 3,895 cases filed per month. Therefore, unless your case has some celebrity value, newspapers and other media outlets simply do not have the space to publish information about bankruptcy filings.

In addition, recent federal government privacy rules have also been applied to cases filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District
