Our (chapter 13 bankruptcy) attorney failed to subimit documents to the court. He directly lied to us and told us that he did. We’re in the last year of bankruptcy and in need of purchasing a car. He told us almost 3 weeks ago that he submitted the papers to the court and then admitted to my husband today that he didn’t. What recourse do we have? Thanks in advance…

And just for everyone’s edification… it was not because we had out of control debt. It was because we had a child that was born with extensive medical needs far and beyond our insurance and the fact that I needed to stop working for 3 years. It was all medical debt.
Thanks in advance…

I filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy but havent been to the creditors meeting yet. I already signed all the papers and was sent a letter on how much they are going to be taking from each of my husbands pay checks. I just got a call this morning for a job interview and got the job will this affect my bankruptcy at all since I already had a set amount I would be paying?

I personally say no since charity starts at home and if your filing bankruptcy that means you don’t basically have the finances for anything extra such as 10 percent tithing. What do the rest of your think?
~FYI~ Senator Orin Hatch of Utah and Baraq Obama are in favor of this bill
So it is alright to default paying others their money but it is alright to keep giving money to whatever church you happen to belong to, interesting—-
The Salt Lake Tribune/December 7, 2006
By Thomas Burr
Washington – Congress has passed legislation co-sponsored by Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, that would allow a person to contribute to charity or pay religious tithing during the course of a consumer bankruptcy. The bill, also sponsored by Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., passed the House on Wednesday; the Senate approved the measure in September. "Congress has a long history of protecting our religious freedom to tithe," Hatch said in a statement. "That was our intent when we enacted bankruptcy reform last year, and this bill clarifies the law so that those who tithe can continue to live their faith while in bankruptcy." A ruling by a New York bankruptcy court earlier this year prompted the legislation. The judge ordered that an upper-income couple filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy could not pay tithing to a church until all creditors were paid first.

i found out online my apartment complex owners filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy in March 2009. The story online says all their assets will be sold at auction to pay creditors. I have not been informed of this by my landlord but we did get a notice of an inspection in 2 days.
Is their a chance I could get evicyed because of the place beng sold because of bankruptcy ? Do the new owners have to legally honor my lease ?

I filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, then dismissed it when I was not able to get a helpful deal from the creditors. I was able to get enough money together to settle with them after the case was dismissed. I have received the tax forms from them claiming that the debt might be considered income. Since this was debt settled after the case was dismissed, is it consider taxable income?

I originally got a pay day loan to help out with some bills. Then I had to get another to pay the interest and so on and so on the same thing now I have 10. I have other debt as well and I need to file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy so I can get back on my feet. Can I include the pay day loans even though I had gotten some of them recently but they all are past due as of yesterday?

I was curious to know if property taxes can be part of your chapter 13 bankruptcy plan of repayment? I tried doing some research on it, but didn’t find much. I live in Wisconsin, but I don’t believe that matters because bankruptcy is on a federal court level, so a specific state wouldn’t matter.

I filed chapter 13 bankruptcy 3 years ago. i am not able to make the payments on my bankruptcy, but i dont want to lose my two cars. I have about 24 payments left, but i am not able to obtain certain necessities for my kids because all of my money goes to bankruptcy. I want to walk away from it like everyone is walking away from their homes. I heard that you could walk away, but i always thought you had to pay every month, so they dont take your vehicles away from you.
