I need an example of a “Motion to Reinstate” for a bankruptcy case in Michigan?

Need an example for a Motion to reinstate case for a chapter 7 bankruptcy case that I am helping my son-in-law file. We missed the deadline for filing the credit counseling report with the court. When I explained to the help desk that we were in the process of getting the counseling, but that it would not get to the Bankruptcy Court until after the deadline, she stated to “just get it here asap.” This I did, but now the Judge has dismissed the case. I am trying to reinstate it and send the credit couseling certificate again to the court. Thank you for any help, stephanie

   I have never seen a BK “reinstated”. Altho, I dont live in your state, but BK’s are federal..anyway..

   Most people are forced to refile the BK. It happens alot.

   Want to know a little secret? Dispute it while it is happening, the courts will have no paper work, and the credit agencies will have to take it off the credit report.
