What if you’re going to be dismissed because you got backup on the mortgage payments?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Kathryn Ursula Tokarska (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Kathryn Tokarska
Best thing you can do and this won't be easy (because the attorney can't take any money from you to help in an existing chapter 13) is to retain one willing to step into a case to help. Self represented Chapter 13 cases that successfully confirm are the exception (in Central District of California the rate of successful confirmation is 1%, better than winning the lottery but still bleak). It sounds like maybe there is a problem with your Plan, maybe you failed to propose a Plan that includes bringing current pre-petition past due payments. I can only speculate without looking at your case. Typically, if the Plan is good and all that has happened is that the debtor has failed to make post petition mortgage payments is that the lender will file a motion for relief of stay, not file a motion to dismiss the entire case. A motion for relief of stay could be successfully opposed provided the debtor can propose to 1) make regular mortgage payments 2) make regular chapter 13 payments 3) and make an adequate protection order payment to cure the post petition default. However, I fear there may be more going on here. Maybe it's the Trustee that is moving for dismissal and you just don't understand who is doing what. Please get professional assistance. Too much at stake, no.

Is a post petition case of action lawsuit settlement part of a Ch. 13 bankruptcy estate?

Stuart M. Nachbar
Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
As you are in a C13, it is part of the estate. Your counsel should be attempting to determine if there is a way to exempt the proceeds from the lawsuit, and file the appropriate amended schedules.

CAn HOA fees be discharged through bankruptcy?

Dawn DiManna
Answered by attorney Dawn DiManna (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at DiManna Law Office, LLC
Section 523(a)(16) of the bankruptcy law, as amended by the 2005 Bankruptcy Reform Act, makes homeowners or condominium association fees nondischargeable, but only if the association fees arose after the date the bankruptcy was filed, and only for so long as the debtor has an ownership interest, or some other equitable interest, in the property. A post-bankruptcy sale or foreclosure of the debtor's interest in the property, once fully completed, ends any further accumulation of association fees. Wait until the foreclosure happens and is finalized and then file so ALL HOA's would be discharged.
