Can I appeal a 6 year old judgement that I just found out?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney John Hanna Sibbison (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at John H. Sibbison, III Professional Law Corporation
You cannot appeal the judgment but if you were never served with the initial lawsuit, you can make a motion to have the default against you set aside and the judgment vacated. It will be your burden to prove that you were not served with the Summons and Complaint.

What will happen if the court dismissed my chapter 13 and the chapter 7 paper work has not been filed?

Daniel J. Winter
Answered by attorney Daniel J. Winter (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Daniel J. Winter
It sounds like your Chapter 13 case was dismissed and it was not converted to Chapter 7. You still can file a new Chapter 7 case. If your lawyer doesn't respond, you can use a new lawyer to file your new case. If you go in for a free consultation, the new lawyer can see what happened to your old case.

Will filing bankruptcy take care of payday loans?

Diane L Drain
Answered by attorney Diane L Drain (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of D. L. Drain, P.A.
Yes, unless there was some type of fraud. Please understand that filing for bankruptcy is a very complicated process. It is wise to talk to an experienced bankruptcy attorney before deciding to take this important step. Most Arizona bankruptcy attorneys offer a free consultation about the basics of bankruptcy.
