Can I be sued from a landlord while going through a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
You can be evicted from an apartment without a lease. If there is no written agreement, which is what a lease is, the tenancy is considered to be month to month. Your last question makes no sense and cannot be answered without more facts. As to being sued from a landlord during a chapter 7 bankruptcy, the landlord would have to move to lift the automatic stay and get the bankruptcy court to grant the motion. You know that you have to pay rent in order to stay in the apartment. Seek the advice of the attorney you used to file the bankruptcy. If you filed bankruptcy without an attorney, set up a consultation with one to learn more about your options.

In a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, when I pay it off is it truly mine and they can't claim anything?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
When you pay off your mortgage, assuming that no other creditor had a lien on your property, it will be truly yours. Most bankruptcy attorneys agree that there is no good reason to ever reaffirm on a home mortgage and indeed many mortgage lenders have stopped trying to persuade bankruptcy debtors to do this.

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

Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
If you are behind on the mortgage payments, you have no defense and the court will grant the motion for relief from stay. However, it probably won't affect you if you still plan to move out of the house this month, in April. After the mortgage company obtains relief from stay they still have to schedule a foreclosure date, which takes time.
