Can the lean holder file suit against the co-signee?

Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Offices of Peter M. Lively
The co-debtor stay in Chapter 13 covers non-debtors regarding consumer debts that they owe with the Chapter 13 debtor, but creditors can get relief from the automatic stay to proceed against co-debtors when the Chapter 13 plan does not provide for 100% of the debt.

What can I do? I'm a creditor in a bankruptcy and I got a letter saying that the debtor got a Discharge of Debtor. Is there another to get my money?

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
Your time to object to the discharge of her debt has passed, so there isn't anything you can do at this point.  You could have possibly objected on the basis of fraud (although that is difficult to prove, and would have cost at least $5,000+ to litigate). If she had any unprotected assets, you should have received a notice from the court telling you to file a claim.  If not, then there is nothing to be disbursed, and your debt having been discharged, there isn't anything further you can do.

Can I file for a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
If no assets or creditors were left out of the papers that were filed, you do not need to amend the schedules. They are prohibited from contacting you and there may be a violation of the automatic stay if they have. You also do not need to send creditors proof that you have filed or that the debt to them has been discharged. They already got notice that you have filed. Often, one department of a large bank does not know what the other department knows. If a bank tries to collect a debt which has been discharged, there may be a violation of the Federal automatic stay.
