What actions can be taken against a co-signer on a car in Texas?

?1301 of the bankruptcy code generally prevents a creditor from going after a co-debtor/co-signer while the Chapter 13 is progressing. The lender can file a motion to lift the automatic stay and if granted then pursue their normal collection efforts. However, if the vehicle is being paid for through the plan then the odds are not very likely that the judge will grant the relief.

If I filed chapter 7 on Dec 31 2016, do I need a defense for a motion for relief from automatic stay?

You should only respond to a motion to lift stay if you oppose it AND have a legal defense to the motion. Based on what you have posted, it sounds like you do not meet either criteria to pursue opposing the lift stay. But consult with your own attorney because it is unclear whether you have disclosed all the information needed to say for sure.

Is there any possible way to keep a car when filing a chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
As long as you keep your payments current on the auto loan the lender cannot repossess it. The issue in bankruptcy will be whether you have any equity in the car, whether the car is worth more than you owe on the loan. You are entitled to a $3,000 "exemption" on the equity in the car. If you have less than $3,000 in equity, then the bankruptcy Trustee will not take an interest in the vehicle. If have more than $3,000 in equity (you have "non-exempt equity") than you can work a deal with the Trustee to pay the Trustee the amount of the non-exempt equity and keep the car.
