a garnishment that was included in my Chap 13 has not been cleared at the courthouse and I can''t find out why who''s job was to clear this?

Herbert Weinberg
Answered by attorney Herbert Weinberg
Bankruptcy lawyer at Rosenberg & Weinberg
The bankruptcy should have resulted in your credit being clean. No one person is responsible for it. I suggest you go to the court and see what needs to be done to remove the garnishment. I would also contact the credit reporting agencies and dispute the items.

Answered by attorney Stuart M. Nachbar
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Stuart M. Nachbar, P.C.
First of all, arrears can go through a c13 plan, but they a priority claim. Second he must remain current post petition. He must file a certificate saying that he is current before his plan can be confirmed and if he misses post petition payments, a motion to vacate stay can be done under 11 USC 362 b.

What do I do if I have been summoned for a default judgement?

Answered by attorney William Monroe Rubendall (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
A default judgment is when you didn't answer the complaint. Once there is a judgment by default the creditor can use all collection mechanisms available under state law. Some of the actions are wage garnishment, levy on bank accounts, filing a lien on your property and having the right to call you in to court pursuant to an order of examination asking about all your assets. A judgment like this can be discharged in bankruptcy. Whether you should file bankruptcy requires a consultation with an attorney.
