Default What happens to the money I have paid my mortgage

lender for taxes and insurance now that they are in a BK ? Our mortgage lender has filed for bankruptcy. Our payments to the mortgage company include principle, interest, taxes and insurance (PITI). What happens to the money we have paid towards taxes and insurance ?? Since we have paid this money in advance with our payment, is the bankrupt mortgage lender required by law to pay them? If they don't, due to bankruptcy protection, are we responsible to pay the money that has already been received by the mortgage lender?? In other words, lets say we have made payments totaling $10,000 over the last 10 months, $2500 of which is taxes and insurance. If the mortgage lender does not pay the $2500 to the insurance company and to the IRS, do we have to come up with the $2500 to pay what the mortgage lender did not ??
