If you're in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy plan, can you file a Chapter 13 instead?

If you are in Chapter 7, there is no Plan. A Plan is part of a Chapter 11, a Chapter 12 and a Chapter 13, but not in a Chapter 7. If you file Chapter 7, you may be eligible to convert to a Chapter 13 and propose a Plan. The details of your budget will determine whether or not this is an appropriate choice.

If bankruptcy didn't reaffirm my home, can I still walk away anytime?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kathryn Ursula Tokarska (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Kathryn Tokarska
The following answer applies to California jurisdiction only. I don't know of any local bankruptcy attorney who would condone or suggest to a client that they reaffirm a mortgage debt. It is not in your best interest to do that so the fact that you did not reaffirm is not a bad thing. If at some point you can't afford to make the payments anymore because you have filed and received a discharge in bankruptcy AND because you have NOT reaffirmed the debt you can walk away from the property. The only remedy the creditor(s) have is to take the property, they cannot sue you for any deficiency or attempt to collect from you. The protection of the bankruptcy discharge makes any such collections illegal. A loan modification, should you get one, would not change this result. Refinancing however would because when you refinance you get a new loan and in your case it would be a loan acquired after the bankruptcy had already been filed. Hope this perspective helps. Take care.

Do I have to have my Chapter 13 dismissed to get divorced?

You don't have to get your chapter 13 dismissed to get divorced, but you can force someone to remain in a chapter 13 either. Reexamine the goals of your chapter 13 to decide how to proceed.
