    Yes. A bankruptcy trustee's job is to administer your estate in bankruptcy and to make sure--in the case of a Chapter 7, or "straight" bankruptcy--that any assets you hold above a certain dollar amount allowed by law are liquidated to pay your debts. Therefore, a trustee may require access to your bank account.
