Notice To Litigants

NOTICE TO LITIGANTS. This form from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Colorado informs individuals named as defendants in an adversary proceeding that the outcome may impact their bankruptcy discharge, even if one has already been granted. It emphasizes the seriousness of the matter and advises defendants that while they are allowed to represent themselves, the legal process is complex and the consequences for missteps can be significant. Litigants are encouraged to seek legal counsel and may contact the Bankruptcy Pro Bono Program through the Faculty of Federal Advocates for free legal representation if they meet income eligibility guidelines. The notice includes 2025 income thresholds—both monthly and annual—based on 150% of the federal poverty level, which are used to determine eligibility for pro bono legal assistance. A copy of this notice and the income guidelines must be served with the Summons and Complaint in accordance with court rules. www.FormsWorkflow.com
