Who is responsible for the chapter 11 bankruptcy allowance determination?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney William Monroe Rubendall (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at William Rubendall Attorney at Law
Chapter 11 is the most complicated type of bankruptcy. Most individuals would file a chapter 13 if a payment plan is the goal. The debtor determines how the expenses are allotted in a budget called Schedule I and J. There also is a requirement of what is called a "means test" which will determine the minimum payments to creditors. You should consult with a bankruptcy specialist to see if you qualify for chapter 11 or chapter 13 or chapter 7.

Will filling chapter 7 bankruptcy remove me from the check system?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jeffrey M. Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at J.M. Cook, P.A.
No. The banks still use the check system, similar to a credit report. They will continue to do so after you file.

Can fraud be discharged from bankruptcy court if there was no intent to commit fraud?

Giovanni Orantes
Answered by attorney Giovanni Orantes (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Orantes Law Firm
If a Court already adjudged that a debt was incurred through fraud, a creditor can come into bankruptcy court and ask the Court to rule that such debt is nondischargeable and will likely prevail. However, if no Court has decreed that fraud was committed, the creditor would have to come into bankruptcy court to get a ruling from the Bankruptcy court and intent is the biggest factor as to whether the debt is dischargeable. If the creditor cannot prove intent, the Court should rule that it's dischargeable.
