New Century Mortgage Corporation Bankruptcy May “Restart” Because Residential Borrowers Were NOT Notified of the Bankruptcy

New Century Financial Corporation and its related entities filed voluntary bankruptcy on April 2, 2007. Persistent Pro Se homeowners are holding the New Century Bankruptcy to task by insisting they, like thousands of other homeowners (if not tens of thousands) were never notified of the New Century bankruptcy. Homeowners with claims would be considered “creditors” in the New Century bankruptcy. If the judge resets the bar date, the bankruptcy would “start over”, or at least the claims period would be opened once more. If this occurs, it is possible New Century would have to notify homeowners with New Century loans that they may be potential creditors. Because of the fraudulent paperwork created by mortgage services and lenders, the number of claims by residential borrowers skyrocket.
The New Century Liquidating Trust insisted the Pro Se borrowers were wrong and everything was fine.
The next hearing on the matter is May 23 2012 in Judge Carey’s courtroom in Delaware. On April 25, 2012, this is briefly what happened at the Omnibus hearing according to “Abby”:
Judge Carey came out for the homeowners in today’s telephonic hearing. Hahn & Hessen, the appointed trustee’s counsels from NYC, wanted to do the substantive arguments TODAY..but Carey shot them down. They wanted to have only a cross examination of Atty. Uhland on May 23rd and Carey shot them down – he said no. He expected direct and cross. He is taking this as a WHOLE NEW evidentiary hearing. Atty. Uhland had been responsible for the bar date publication for one day each in the Wall Street Journal and the Orange County Register.
Homeowner/borrowers were never notified of the bankruptcy even though New Century had the contact data for each homeowner/borrower.
Also, the appointed bankruptcy trustee, Alan Jacobs was ordered back for the hearing on May 23, 2012 as well as Atty. Uhland. Pro se Homeowner/borrowers will have about a month to prepare their questions for testimony from Atty. Uhland and the bankruptcy trustee Alan Jacobs.

There are numerous other objections from other Pro Se’s, but this is the only one we currently have.
