A Delaware Order Directing Joint Administration of Cases (For Consumer Cases) is a court order issued by the Delaware Bankruptcy Court that allows multiple consumer bankruptcy cases to be administered jointly in Delaware. The order is typically used when multiple consumers have filed for bankruptcy protection in the same district or when their cases involve common issues, parties, or assets. The order allows for the consolidation of multiple cases in order to reduce administrative costs and allow for more efficient handling of the cases. There are two types of Delaware Orders Directing Joint Administration of Cases (For Consumer Cases): 1) a joint administration order for Chapter 7 cases, and 2) a joint administration order for Chapter 13 cases. The order is typically issued by the court after the filing of an appropriate motion by the debtor or creditors. The order is binding on all parties involved and must be followed by the court-appointed trustee. The order also outlines the responsibilities of the trustee, including the distribution of assets, collection of debts, and other administrative duties.
