In a converted case, the clerk will also give notice to all entities added before entry of the conversion order. In an involuntary case, the clerk will give notice using any list timely filed under FRBP 1007(a)(2). For all other entities entitled to notice of the meeting of creditors, the debtor must give notice under LBF 728.
