Bankruptcy Administration Improvement Act of 2025
HR 3867, the Bankruptcy Administration Improvement Act of 2025, increases compensation for chapter 7 bankruptcy trustees from $60 to $120 per case, directly affecting these trustees who administer consumer bankruptcy cases. The bill adjusts fee distributions to fund this increase, ensuring the bankruptcy system remains self-supporting without taxpayer costs. It also extends terms for certain bankruptcy judge positions from 5 to 10 years to address caseload demands. The bill does not change filing fees or alter courts' authority to waive fees for indigent filers.
