I am suing someone, what if they claim they have no money, he is in the military and gets paid well, plus has a pension?

Charles Reiger Gallagher
Answered by attorney Charles Reiger Gallagher
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gallagher & Associates Law Firm, P.A.
Claiming one has no money is not a defense to a legitimate breach of contract or money lent case. If the defendant is on active military deployment, the Service members Relief Act provides some protections. Once you win a suit, you have to collect upon the judgment. It sounds as though you will need an attorney to assist you.

How do I respond to civil judgment in a credit card case?

Adam S. Alexander
Answered by attorney Adam S. Alexander
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Alexander Law Firm
It is hard to comment on your fact scenario without reviewing the court documents. However, to the extent you cannot get the default "set aside", the creditor's lawyer will likely attempt to garnish your wages or your taxes to satisfy the judgment.

What happens to the home equity in a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
The problem is that perhaps bankruptcy is not the best thing for you, especially if all you are really trying to save is the non-existant equity in your home. You may be better off to look into a modification of the mortgage, which is being done more often now. The problem arises, as I see it, in that when you file a chapter 13, the mortgage company is more or less assured that you will not be modifying your mortgage. The mortgage company will not be seeking a lifting of the automatic stay if you are current. So, before you file, look into a modification program that might better suit your needs.
