Text
(a)IN GENERAL. After an involuntary petition has been filed, the
clerk must promptly issue a summons for service on the debtor.
The summons must be served with a copy of the petition in the
manner that Rule 7004(a) and (b) provide for service of a summons
and complaint. If service cannot be so made, the court may order
service by mail to the debtor’s last known address, and by at least
one publication as the court orders. Service may be made any-
where. Rule 7004(e) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 4(l) govern service under
this rule.
(b)CORPORATE-OWNERSHIP STATEMENT. A corporation that files
an involuntary petition must file and serve with the petition a
corporate-ownership statement containing the information de-
scribed in Rule 7007.1.
