Because the bankruptcy estate is so extensive and the jurisdictionof the court so broad, there may be lawsuits over the property or property rights of the estate. There also may be lawsuitsconcerning the debtor222s discharge. If such a lawsuit is filed in a bankruptcy court, it is called an adversary proceeding. A party filing an adversary proceeding must also must complete and file Form 104, the Adversary Proceeding Cover Sheet,if it is required by the court. In some courts, the cover sheet is not required when the adversary proceeding is filed electronicallythrough the court's Case Management/Electronic Case Files (CM/ECF) system. (CM/ECF captures the information on Form 104as part of the filing process.) When completed, the cover sheet summarizes basic information on the adversary proceeding. Theclerk of court needs the information to process the adversary proceeding and prepare required statistical reports on court activity. The cover sheet and the information contained on it do not replace or supplement the filing and service of pleadings orother papers as required by law, the Bankruptcy Rules, or the local rules of court. The cover sheet, which is largely self-explanatory, must be completed by the plaintiff222s attorney (or by the plaintiff if the plaintiff is not represented by an attorney).A separate cover sheet must be submitted to the clerk for each complaint filed. Plaintiffs and Defendants. Give the names of the plaintiffs and defendants exactly as they appear on the complaint. Attorneys. Give the names and addresses of the attorneys, if known. Party.

This cover sheet must be signed by the attorney of record in the box on the second page of the form. If the plaintiffis represented by a law firm, a member of the firm must sign.
