What to do if the publisher of one of my books has filed Chapter 11?

Apparently, I am entitled to a settlement. I received a “Proof of Claim” form and am unsure how to approach it, as there are no instructions. I am not sure whether or not I need to supply documentation to prove the claim or if I just have to sign the form sent to me with the stated financial entitlement.

You need to fill out and attach all documents as to the proof of claim form and send it to the court with a copy for filing and return in a self addressed stamped envelope. If you are unsure as to what to do, I suggest that you consult with a bankruptcy attorney for help.
