SECURE DOCUMENT UPLOAD PORTAL NOW AVAILABLE!

Jack N. Zaharopoulos, Chapter 13 Trustee for the Middle District of Pennsylvania, has a secure, encrypted portal available to debtor's attorneys. This portal should be utilized for submitting documents to the Chapter 13 Trustee Office only.

DO NOT CONFUSE THIS PORTAL WITH THE FILING OF COURT DOCUMENTS.

All Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure still apply to the filing of court documents. This office will continue to receive copies of filed documents directly from the court as we always have. The portal is to be used for submitting documents to the Trustee's office that are not required to be filed with the court.

The good news is that utilization of the portal is already available through your MDBBA membership using your trustee13.com login. If you are a member of the MDBBA, you can participate.

The portal is a more secure method of sending documents. It is easy and free of cost to use.
