WHAT IS A CLAIM OBJECTION AND 
WHY WOULD THERE BE AN OBJECTION?

An objection is when the debtor, attorney or Trustee feels there are questionable issues with a claim.  Examples:

•	The claim is filed for more than expected.

•	The claim was filed late (after the last date listed for filing in the Order and Notice Scheduling Hearing to Confirmation) which is sent out to each creditor.

•	The claim is filed without documentation if a secured or priority claim.

•	The claim is filed incorrectly as a secured or priority claim and it is actually a unsecured claim.

•	The claim is filed and the Debtor does not owe the creditor money or is a duplicate of another claim filed.
