Can I file for bankruptcy after our divorce? How?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
If you got a discharge under Chapter 7, you can file under Chapter 13 after four years (from filing date to filing date). Again, after a discharge in one Chapter 7, you must wait eight years before you can file again under Ch. 7 and get a discharge. Your having been divorced in the meantime makes no difference.

I have had my wages garnished all year and I still owe, but last week there was nothing taken out and I know that I still owe do they give passes?

No, the holidays are not the reason why a wage garnishment stopped, or if it is the reason, it is an indirect reason. Wage garnishments stop because they are only valid for a certain length of time. When they run out, the creditor's attorney must apply for a new garnishment Writ. With people leaving for the holidays, the lawyer probably overlooked filing the application for the new Writ. I would urge you to contact the office to see if you can get on a payment plan instead. Or better still, try to find a way to settle this obligation. It will cost you a lot less in the long run.
