A West Virginia Notice of Exception to Preferred Creditors Address is a type of legal document used to notify creditors that the debtor has requested to make an exception to the preferred creditor rule. The preferred creditor rule states that creditors have the right to be paid first when a debtor is unable to pay off all debts. This document is filed in the West Virginia State Supreme Court and serves as public notice of the debtor’s request. There are two types of West Virginia Notice of Exception to Preferred Creditors Address: one is for secured creditors and the other is for unsecured creditors. Both notices must be signed by the debtor and contain information about the debt being requested to be paid first, the name of the creditor, and the amount of the debt. Once filed, the notice is published in the West Virginia Register. This public notice allows creditors to know that the debtor has requested an exception to the preferred creditor rule.
