In a "No Asset" case, how long after the discharge does it take to be sure
the trustee isn't going to be interested in any of your possessions such as
a car which was exempt because of low value and other things like TV's
computers etc.

the Trustee will normally file a "no asset" report shortly after the 341,
abandoning these assets (saying that he/she doesn't believe that have any
value for the purposes of the bankruptcy.)

Thanks

Would it be safe to assume then that if the Trustee has not made any filings
in regards to the exemptions, that months after the discharge they are safe?

I've not seen any "reports" from the Trustee on Pacer. Is that where they
would appear?

Also, I assume that after the discharge, the next event to show would be the
closing of the case?

Thanks again
