What can I do if my bankruptcy case was dismissed?

Answered by attorney Michael O'Leary
Bankruptcy lawyer at Hayward, Parker O'Leary
It really depends upon the facts surrounding the dismissal. You are not eligible to re-file a bankruptcy case for 180 days if (1) the case was dismissed because you failed to abide by Bankruptcy Court Orders, or (2) you voluntarily dismissed the case following the filing of a motion for relief from the automatic stay. In most other circumstances you could re-file immediately, although you will have to jump through a few hoops to get the automatic stay extended beyond the 30 day period after the re-filing. This may or may not be a problem, depending upon the type of bankruptcy that you file and what you are hoping to achieve by such a filing.

If I elect to close a credit card, is the bank required to stop charging interest and late fees.

Richard Alan Alsobrook
Answered by attorney Richard Alan Alsobrook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Alan Alsobrook
Assuming that a balance still remains on the credit card, it really depends on what the credit card agreement states.  You need to read the terms of the contract you agreed to when you started the credit card account. Each case is different, and needs to be examined individually. You should contact a local attorney to discuss your case. This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature. No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information. Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.

If sheriffs gives me a 5 day notice can I file for emergency bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
It takes me about a month to get all the paperwork ready to file with the bankruptcy court. If you can file an "emergency bankruptcy" and you think that will enable you more time to relocate, then go ahead and do it. An automatic stay pursuant to federal law will be in effect on the moment you file a bankruptcy. This means that no creditor can proceed with an action in State court. The sheriff has already given you a 5 day notice. But I do not know what the notice says. If it says you have 5 days to vacate, then you should vacate. Filing bankruptcy is not something you can just go an do so that you have more time to move. It is a very serious decision for which you need competent legal advice. The law changed back in 2005 so that people who are going to file bankruptcy must first go over their financial circumstances with an approved consumer credit counseling agency, and get a certificate saying that they have done so.
