Hi Suzanne
I wonder if you could help me again, didn't want to call as I might appear a nuisance so thought I would post a message on here for you to reply in your own time.
When I contacted that other company we were talking about I asked about whether there would be a way I could omit my details appearing in the paper. I have a very good reason for this, I don't want a couple of people to know where I am living. A police statement was given and one person arrested but the CPS felt there wasn't enough evidence to prosecute but without going into too much detail there is a very sensitive nature to it.
I was going to go bankrupt last year before my IVA started but wasn't told that something could be done about this and it scared me so prevented me going ahead.
I have now found out that it can be prevented from going in the paper depending on the circumstances. The company in question said for me to write a letter to the judge explaining the situation plus provide any evidence to support this. Is this correct? And if so, do I provide this to the judge or the OR... who makes the decision to put it in the paper?
Hope you can help.

The decision not to put it in the paper is made by the Judge. If you are going to court yourself you may get the opportunity to speak to him/her directly. But a letter detailing the reasons and some proof sounds like sound advice. If the Judge makes a decision for your address to be with held it will be with held from the insolvency register also, and will not be disclosed to creditors either.
However, if you have already been in an IVA you details are available already on the insolvency register.

I would write to the Judge and ask for your circumstances to be taken into consideration, and that you beleive your personal safety would be compromised if your current address was publicised.

I have done this for a couple of my own clients, and do find that District Judges are sympathetic if you are able to provide appropriate evidence - such as a police report or crime number.

Hi Suzanne
Im in a bit of a panick. I went to court on Friday and was told by the guy checking my forms that the letter I had written asking that my details were withheld from the paper etc. would need to be given to the OR when they request all the statements from me etc.
I never got to see the judge, was just given the form back with the bankruptcy details on it.
What can I do?
