TO ALL INDIVIDUALS/ENTITIES THAT WERE EITHER LANDLORDS OR TENANTS OF REAL PROPERTIES THAT WERE MANAGED BY AMERI-DREAM:
On September 30, 2015, the Trustee filed a Motion For (1) Turnover of Security Deposits Held In Trust Account of McDonald Carano Wilson Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §542 and (2) Authority to Administer Security Deposits Through the Debtor’s Bankruptcy Estate Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 105(a) (the “Motion for Turnover”), which sought to transfer approximately $707,567.29 of the remaining security deposits once maintained by the Debtor and currently held in an IOLTA by the Debtor’s bankruptcy counsel (the “Security Deposits”) to Ameri-Dream's bankruptcy case so that they can be administered for the benefit of creditors that have filed proofs of claims. On November 3, 2014, the Bankruptcy Court conducted a hearing on the Motion for Turnover and held that the Security Deposits shall be transferred to the bankruptcy estate fifteen (15) days after the entry of the order granting the Motion for Turnover.
Although the Security Deposits will be transferred to Ameri-Dream's bankruptcy case so that they can be used to pay proofs of claim, no payments will be made to any landlords or tenants that have filed proofs of claims until Ameri-Dream’s bankruptcy case has been fully administered.
