We filed in October have not received a court date at all but a letter came that states "Notice of Entry Of Dismissal Of Bankruptcy Case". But the back of the letter states that a creditor was not notified and we could still be lieable to pay. We are confused..

You want to contact a bankruptcy attorney, if you have an attorney, you may want to contact the bar association if there was any wrongdoing by the attorney. You may try to get the case reinstated, you only have 10 days from the date the order dismissing your case was filed.

There should be a check mark on the letter somewhere explaining why the case was dismissed. It could be any number of reasons, like you didn't go to credit counseling or you were ineligible to file for whatever reason or other reasons. You should find out why the case was dismissed.
Now you are no longer in bankruptcy, so the creditor could proceed against you. To stop that, you can re-file in most cases.

It means you case has been dismissed for some reason and you did not receive a discharge. The most likely cause is that you make a mistake in your filing or didn't file a crucial document such as the certificate for credit counseling. Or perhaps you failed to attend the meeting of creditor. You should see a local bankruptcy attorney right away.

The address you gave the court for that creditor was not a valid address. The court probably asked you to provide that creditor's address on a number of occasions. Because the court does not have that creditor's address, the court cannot send that creditor information about your bankruptcy filing. That, and other undisclosed reasons, is why the court dismissed your bankruptcy. Your attorney, if you have one, should have explained all this to you and taken care of any omissions.

more than likely your attorney did this. do you have any outstanding taxes to file? did you pay your attorney? they will enter an intent to dismiss for that reason also. do you have an attorney? there is court date usually where the trustee and creditors attend as well as you. contact the trustee and see why it was dismissed.

Seems to me they would not let you file for bankruptcy, they dismissed your case.

its good if its dismissed. That means your in the clear. EXCEPT the one debt. Call your BR lawyer and ask why that debt was left off. Cuz yes if you didn't list it in your debts you are still liable.

Get out your check book, and start paying your bills again! You've been denied!
