I recently filed for individual bankruptcy under chapter 7. I received my NOC yesterday with my court date/meeting of creditors. My immediate family knows that I have filed ... it's not a secret but I was disheartened when I had told my parents and siblings that I had finally received my court date and they proclaimed they were going. Please tell me that the court is not open for public. I told them I do NOT want them going with me but they said they want to see it firsthand. I'm hoping that there is a law that bankruptcy proceedings are closed to the public. I'm in Michigan ... Eastern District if that helps. Thanks
