What is the Status of Mortgage after Bankruptcy?

Marjorie A. Guymon
Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon
Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
If you do not reaffirm, you can still pay the mortgage timely and ultimately own the house upon payment in full. However, the mortgage company may not reflect the timely payments on your credit report but rather note the debt discharged. So the timely payments will not help you re-establish your credit. Some banks will not do a loan modification if you have filed bankruptcy and failed to reaffirm the debt.

Can you be prosecuted for a unpaid pay day loan?

Answered by attorney Douglas William Cameron Forsyth (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Dion & Forsyth, P.A.
No they cannot bring criminal charges. While there could be a civil suit to recover a monetary judgment that does not involve criminal proceedings and certainly not jail time. In fact the tactics you describe could be violations of the Fair Debt Collections Practices Act and they could be held liable for monetary sanctions.

Can I stop paying my debt just until I have my court date?

Answered by attorney Margaret L. Evans (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Margaret L. Evans, PC
Question: Can I stop paying my debt just until I have my court date? *- not on secured debt which is what a car payment is generally* Question Detail: Just went into bankruptcy and haven't had my court date yet. Only owe $865 on my car plus $1500 in fees (late, deferment fees). Can I stop paying just until I have my court date? I did file the paper to reaffirm my debt with the lender. Even though filing bankruptcy things will still be tight until next month.* - you should discuss that with the lender; my general advice is to NOT stop paying secured creditors during the pendency of a bankruptcy where you want to reaffirm that debt*
