In the United States, a Trustee in Bankruptcy is a person who is appointed by the Court.
In a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy the trustee gathers the debtor’s non-exempt property, managing the funds from the sale of those assets, and then paying expenses and distributing the balance to the owed creditors.
In a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy the trustee is responsible for receiving the debtor’s monthly payments and distributing those funds proportionally to the bankrupt’s creditors. The Bankruptcy Trustee takes action in Bankruptcy cases to protect the rights of unsecured creditors and to protect the integrity of the Chapter 13 case.
