What is the name of your state? IL

My cousin has a creditor listed in her petition and had two accounts with this creditor. Her lawyer gave a combined total of the two and listed it in her petition and was sent out to the creditor. the thing though is that each of the accounts were listed to a different address: one in texas and the other in new jersey. the total and the notice was sent to the one in texas. My cousin and her lawyer may have just not been paying anttention to the address. Now the creditor seems that they have transferred both accounts to the new jersey address recieving two statements from two different accounts. (One of the those accounts was orginally under the texas address). My cousin has already had her 341 meeting and is a no asset case awaiting to be discharged and will be faxing over her findings to the lawyer...

1.) Would this affect her discharge?
2.) As long as you give notice of bankruptcyto the creditor, would it really matter on the address so as long as the company knows? I can't imagine that every lawyer out there will list every account number on a petition just so as long as they are listed in her petition.
3.) Told her do not worry about it but she is worrisome. any advice to get her off my back would be appreciated. :eek:

They don't need to be sending statements period. She needs to let her lawyer handle this.If the orginal creditor has been notified, she doesn't need to worry.
