April 16 Response Deadline: ILS Petition to Engage in Emergency Rulemaking

Indiana Legal Services, Prosperity Indiana, the Neighborhood Christian Legal Clinic and the Indiana Institute for Working Families (collectively, ILS) recently filed the attached petition asking the Indiana Supreme Court to engage in emergency rulemaking “to protect Cares Act stimulus payments from attachment or garnishment by creditors.” The Indiana Supreme Court entered the attached Order stating that, “any person or entity that wishes to file a response to ILS’s petition must do so by 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, April 16, 2020.” Because the relief requested could directly impact work being performed by members of this section, we wanted to give you notice. Please review the attached documents.
