Is there a way to know if the judge will accept a Chapter 7? How?

You qualify for a Chapter 7 based on income. The "means test" is based on your state. In Ohio, a single personal can file Chapter 7 with an income under $44,000 per year. The test is based on your actual income for the past 6 months. So say a teacher who makes $60,000 a year but has zero income for the 3 summer months in September would qualify (last 6 months would have 3 months of $6,700 and 3 months of zero - monthly average would be $3,350 or $40,200 a year) but in April, they would not qualify. You qualify for a Chapter 13 by having a regular income (meaning you have income every month) and not more than $380,000 unsecured debt (like credit cards) or more than $1,150,000 of secured debt (mortgages and car loans).

Can we sell our jointly owned home before bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Margaret L. Evans (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Margaret L. Evans, PC
Can we sell our jointly owned home before bankruptcy? - yes, but depending on what equity you may have in the home, you may not want to convert otherwise exempt equity into an otherwise UNEXEMPT asset. Further consideration of your individual circumstances is necessary. Question Detail: I want to sell our jointly owned house. My ex wife lives in the house and won't buy me out or sell. What are my options? - Wasn't that issue addressed in the divorce decree or property settlement agreement? If she is TRULY your "ex-wife" and you are LEGALLY divorced, then there should be clarity about WHO has title to the home. Can't provide any more insight without more information.
