Can landlord choose to have Non-Renewal of Lease for persons who filed bankruptcy once lease expires?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Rustin Scott Polk (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Polk & Associates
You can always be evicted for not paying rent. If you have a bankruptcy filing then there is a way to get the unpaid rent taken care of via another method, and that can help in keeping the landlord from succeeding on an eviction case against you. It could be filed in the bankruptcy court or in the regular JP/eviction court (after getting the automatic stay lifted). But either way, filing bankruptcy does not mean you can force the landlord to keep you in his property for free. Subject to some non-bankruptcy laws about preventing housing discrimination, a landlord doesn't have to give a new lease to someone he doesn't want to; bankruptcy doesn't change that.

How many years does a bankrupcy stay on my credit report?

Jeffrey David Solomon
Answered by attorney Jeffrey David Solomon (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Jeffrey Solomon
The bankruptcy would likely stay on your credit for 10 years, but that does not mean you have to wait that long to obtain credit. You might be able to obtain home financing in 2 years. You should contact a mortgage broker.

What is dismissal of bankruptcy

Mark J Markus
Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
A dismissal of bankruptcy means you are no longer in bankruptcy and did not receive a discharge of debts.  Thus, you still owe the balance remaining to any of your pre-bankruptcy creditors and if you were curing a default on your mortgage, the default is still there and they can now foreclose. Your options now are to either file a Motion for Reconsideration or to Set Aside the Dismissal if you have appropriate facts to do so (which you might), or file a new Chapter 13 case. A lot of times claims are filed which need to be paid in full, so the payment you were originally making might not have been sufficient to cover all the necessary claims.  Without reviewing your entire case file I couldn't tell you what the situation is in your case.  Your attorney should have been monitoring that and taking steps to modify your plan payments if necessary.  But I'm just speculating as to what may have happened. Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
