Does a confirmed Chapter 13 stop any creditor on the petition from filing a complaint for fraud for the same debt with the Department of Insurance?

Bankruptcy does not prevent a creditor from filing a criminal complaint against a debtor. Bankruptcy only deals with the discharge of civil debt, not criminal offenses. See 11 USC sec 523 for further information about the relationship between bankruptcy and the criminal justice system.

Will bankruptcy affect his case or should we postpone our wedding?

Answered by attorney Linda S Novakov (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Linda S. Novakov & Associates, PLLC
The petition is presented to the court as of the filing date. The 341 hearing is to determine if all of the information in the petition was accurate and to determine whether there are assets that have value that would benefit the unsecured creditors. Your wedding should have no effect on the information that was contained in the petition.

I know someone who got divorced to declare ch.7. but he continued to live with his wife. is this fraud?

Mark J Markus
Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
Not necessarily.  There is nothing that requires divorced people to live apart.  There are certain benefits and rights people get from being married, and those are lost once they get divorced.   The real question here is how did getting divorced benefit them or help this person file for Chapter 7? Did it reduce the total income?  If so, did they provide for the contributions made by his ex-wife (now his roommate)?  Just something to look at. Also, if they get remarried again right after the bankruptcy is completed, that would be some evidence of fraud.  I'm not sure how far that would get you though since people get divorced and then reconcile all the time. Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
