Map the petition, declarations and relief requested at the start of a case. Keep each request beside its source and record whether an order has been entered.
#The filing map
Start with these filing groups. The map describes the reviewed material; an empty result does not establish that a motion was never filed.
| Filing group | What to record |
|---|---|
| Petition and declaration | Debtor, court, petition date and stated reasons for filing. |
| DIP or cash collateral | Financing requested, proposed terms and entered interim relief. |
| Cash management, wages and vendors | Relief requested and any limits in an entered order. |
| Notices and hearing papers | Hearing date, objection procedure and source. |
| Retention applications | Proposed professional and role; distinguish an application from approval. |
Use the DIP example for a worked comparison of financing amounts and order language.

the filings before comparing operative terms.
