Can I refile for bankruptcy if both times my file has been dismissed?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Jeffrey M. Cook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at J.M. Cook, P.A.
If you have had two previous Chapter 13's that were dismissed, you can refile. The problem is the automatic stay, the process that stays collection, will expire after 30 days unless you can get a court order extending the stay. With two previous bankruptcy, that can be difficult, depending on your local court. Bigger question would be why would you continue to file Chapter 13 when obviously that isn't working for you. Most people who think they are Chapter 13 candidates are actually better suited in Chapter 7. Whether you can get your car returned will depend on when you file, when the car was taken and whether you still have some redemptive rights at the time of filing.

What can we do to get another loan modification?

Answered by attorney Christine Ann Kingston (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Christine A. Wilton
There is no law that requires the lender give you a loan modification, let alone a third one as you are now asking for. The bottom line is that if you want to keep your home, you must continue to make your mortgage payments, property tax payments and maintain homeowners insurance.

Can a bankruptcy judge require bank to modify mortgage in a chapter 13?

Doubt it. A 2d lien can be stripped in a Ch. 13 under certain circumstances, but so far nothing requires judges to force modifications.
