The text of the law (unofficial translation)
§ 6-3. Court hearing on amendment of a debt settlement (gjeldsordning)
Before the court (retten) considers a petition (begjæring) under §§ 6-1 or 6-2, the debtor (skyldneren) and the affected creditors (fordringshaverne) shall be given the opportunity to state their views. A court hearing (rettsmøte) shall be called if the debtor or one of the creditors demands it or the court finds it necessary.
What does this mean?
Before the court decides whether a debt settlement is to be amended or revised (omgjøring), you and the creditors affected must be given the chance to state your views. A court hearing is held if you or a creditor demands it, or if the court itself considers it necessary.
This section is a procedural rule for the petitions in § 6-1 (the debtor's wish for an amendment) and § 6-2 (the creditors' demand for revision or cancellation (opphevelse)). The deadlines for such petitions are set out in § 6-5.
