Q: How do I find the final result of my claim? I have the case number.
This is in reference to Daewoo motor america bankruptcy case from 2003 I have a claim in the case. I just want to know if there is a monetary decision to my claim.
A:
Looks like this was case number 2:02-bk-24411-BB (aka 02-24411) filed in the Central District of California 5/16/02. A plan was confirmed 10/8/03 and the case was closed 5/23/14, which means any payments for claims were already paid a long time ago. The deadline for filing claims was 11/18/02. If you did file a claim, it is possible your claim was objected to and you never responded, or perhaps the payment was made but lost somehow or went to the wrong address. In any case, it's probably way too late to do anything, but you can still research to see what happened.
You can access the docket using pacer.gov and you may need to pay to pull reports (although I think if you're under a certain amount, they don't bill you at all). You'll need to set up a pacer account. Alternatively, you could go to the court clerk to get the info, but not sure if they're open. You can go to the bankruptcy court's website to find out more information on how to access the docket: https://www.cacb.uscourts.gov/.
