Can a landlord file eviction if a person is under chapter 13?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
If a landlord proceeds with an eviction against a person in Chapter 13 without bankruptcy court approval, the bankruptcy court can impose sanctions to penalize the landlord and the eviction court will not be allowed to enter an order granting the eviction. Better retain a bankruptcy creditor's attorney to begin the process of obtaining permission.

What can I do if I am listed as a creditor in a bankruptcy?

If you think you are owed a significant debt you should consult an attorney. The Trustee does not represent you and your rights are something you must assert. Sitting back and waiting for the process to go forward is not advised. You may not recover anything if your debt is unsecured, but you must review the situation with someone who can advise you what affirmative steps you should take.

What happens if we cant be represented in court for a bankruptcy file?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
That is really tough situation since most lawyers don't want to get involved in cases already filed. You do not mention the reason the lawyer will not represent you anymore. Was it because he/she was suspended or disbarred? or was it because of a dispute with you? A lawyer cannot just stop representing a client in a court case without your written consent or a court order. In Chapter 13 most of the attorneys' fees are paid through the plan payments. There are lawyers who will accept a Chapter 13 cases with little or no payment before filing with all or almost all of their fees to be paid through the Plan payments. You definitely need to find a new lawyer and appear at the hearing unless you are able to hire another lawyer before the hearing date and that lawyer tells you not to go. If you cannot find another lawyer then go to the hearing and tell the judge what happened and most likely the court will continue your case and give you more time if you were diligent in trying to find another lawyer before the hearing. There are organizations of lawyers that may be able to provide you with a referral to a lawyer that will help you, particularly if the fact that your lawyer is no longer able to represent you is not your fault. You should contact the bar association of the County where you live for assistance if you are unable to find a lawyer on your own. Good luck...
