Can I file another bankruptcy after filing a chapter 7 two years ago?

Christopher J. Kane
Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
If you received a discharge in your Chapter 7, you have to wait 8 years from the filing of that case to file another Chapter 7. You can file a Chapter 13 case 4 years after that filing date.

How would bankruptcy affect my retirement plan?

All qualified pension plans and IRAs of any type are exempt assets in bankruptcy. So, bankruptcy would not affect these plans at all.

What can I do if I traded in my car but it's not showing up in my bankruptcy case?

Answered by attorney Roger J Bus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Debt Relief Law Center
If you reject a cosigned secured debt in a Chapter 7, the creditor can repossess the collateral and pursue the cosigner for any deficiency balance owing. If you keep paying for the car, it may be advisable to sign a reaffirmation agreement so it is less likely for the creditor to pursue the cosigner. If you are voluntarily making payments with no reaffirmation agreement, then you have to consider whether if it is worth it to you to keep making the payments (which are not being reported to your credit report apparently) just so the cosigner is left alone hopefully. A toss up. Make sure that the cosigner is listed on your Schedule F so the cosigner cannot come after you in the event you default on the vehicle payments.
