Can landlord choose to have Non-Renewal of Lease for persons who filed bankruptcy once lease expires?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
You can always be evicted for not paying rent. If you have a bankruptcy filing then there is a way to get the unpaid rent taken care of via another method, and that can help in keeping the landlord from succeeding on an eviction case against you. It could be filed in the bankruptcy court or in the regular JP/eviction court (after getting the automatic stay lifted). But either way, filing bankruptcy does not mean you can force the landlord to keep you in his property for free. Subject to some non-bankruptcy laws about preventing housing discrimination, a landlord doesn't have to give a new lease to someone he doesn't want to; bankruptcy doesn't change that.

It stays on your record for 8 years. After discharge you should proactively try to build up your credit and it is possible that you might be able to apply to a house loan in a few years.

Can my wife file for bankruptcy without using my income for the means test if we live in different households?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Susan G. Taylor
I had clients who had long been separated & had disparate incomes. His contribution to her household was noted, but their incomes were not combined for means test purposes. However, if your intent is to someday reunite, I think you would get push back from your U.S. Trustee's office.
