What can I do if the soverign bank collected on my discharged debt for those years?

Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
Hard to imagine how you managed to pay that much money if you did not want to continue paying and now you are concerned about it after so long. While the personal liability for the mortgage/deed of trust is discharged in bankruptcy, the debt is still collectable if the bank wants to sell the house in foreclosure and get whatever the sale proceeds are received because it is secured by a lien (a deed of trust or mortgage) and the lien is not affected by the bankruptcy. I would guess that the bank will now claim that you paid voluntarily which you are allowed to do after bankrutpcy. I doubt that you can get it back but your situation is so unusual that you need to consult with an attorney who can review the documents and get all the facts.

8 years from filing date to filing date; chapter 13 is the only bankruptcy available to you at this point.
