claim in bankruptcy

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.06 sec.

claim in bankruptcy n. the written claim filed by persons or businesses owed money (creditors) by a party who files for bankruptcy (debtor) to benefit from the distribution if money becomes available. The known creditors receive written notice of the bankruptcy and will receive a creditor's claim form. They may also receive notice that the bankrupt party has no assets to distribute and that they should not file a claim until further notice (this is bad news for the creditor.) (See: bankruptcy, bankruptcy proceedings)
