|
|
|
| ## Method and limits
|
|
|
| Merge the agents' case lists, keep 2025 and 2026 Chapter 11 filings with a petition PDF, read the petition checkboxes, and parse Official Form 204 pages line by line for rank, creditor name, nature of claim and amount.
|
|
|
| Not bar dates or claims registers (agents publish those case by case, often behind bot checks). Not every Chapter 11 case: small cases without a claims agent are out. Form 204 amounts are the debtor's estimates at filing. No personal contact data.
