Can we be forced to file a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Gregory J. Wald
If you wait until your six-month average is below the median, and if you file while she is not employed, then your past earnings are not likely to be a problem for filing Chapter 7.

What can I do about my chapter 13 file?

Pamela L. Stewart
Answered by attorney Pamela L. Stewart (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Pamela L. Stewart, Attorney at Law
Without knowing all the specifics of your case, I can only give you a general answer. I would suggest you contact your attorney for advice for your specific case. Based on the information you have provided, I would recommend you convert to a Chapter 7, if you are eligible, and give up the home. The dogbite claim can be added to your creditors if you convert. Otherwise, I would recommend you file a motion to dismiss your case, provided a Motion for Relief from Stay has not been filed in your case. Of course, your creditors have a right to pursue you if your case is dismissed. Your home belongs to you until you either sell it or it is foreclosed upon. If you sell it while you are in your Chapter 13, you will need to get approval from the court to sale it. Again, you should consult with your attorney.

Your case may be dismissed. Advise the trustee what happened. If he filed your case, he has to make a motion to be relieved.
