Do we need to reopening a Discharged Bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christopher Emmanuel Benjamin (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Barrister Firm, P.A.
The simple answer is no, because once the discharge occurred, the creditors debts were dissolved. There may however be an exception if the case was going on at the time of the initial bankruptcy and you failed to disclose the case in the bankruptcy proceeding. Under the foregoing scenario, a creditor could attack the discharge based upon false reporting or failure to report the litigation that led to the award during the bankruptcy proceedings.

Can I file a chapter 7 bankruptcy to get rid of my second mortgage?

Michael Jay Berger
Answered by attorney Michael Jay Berger
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Michael Jay Berger
Filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy will NOT get rid of your second mortgage if you still own the home. It will generally discharge most regular bills. Exceptions to discharge are set forth in 11 U.S.C. Section 523. There is a procedure in a Chapter 13 that can convert your second mortgage to unsecured debt if the value of the home is less than the first mortgage.
