I have an unsecured home equity loan on a house I do not own any longer. Can I be sued for by present home owner if I can not pay that loan?

Answered by attorney Joseph M. Rosenthal
Bankruptcy lawyer at Rosenthal & Mintz, LLP
If you are personally signed on the note, you will continue to be liable until such time as the loan if fully satisfied.  Therefore, if the current owner is forced to pay your debt to keep the house from being foreclosed, he/she could come after you for reimbursement.

When Chap 13 Plan expires but new Creditor emerges and Trustee extends plan does extension renew payment schedule for prior Plan Creditors?

Answered by attorney Michael D. Siegel
Bankruptcy lawyer at Siegel & Siegel, P.C.
It depends on the plan terms.  While the bankruptcy is open, you are stayed from actions against the debtor under state law, like garnishment.

If I didn't think I had to list all of my credit cards with my attorney until after he filed bankruptcy, what should I do?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
Surely your lawyer told you to list all possible claims. But whether he did or did not, contact him ASAP and tell him that you inadvertently omitted a number of claims. He will then draft an Amendment to your schedules, listing the creditor by name and address, the amount (exact or approximate) you believe the creditor claims, the date (exact or approximate) that the claim was incurred, and what it was for (e.g. services, loan of money, etc.). You will have to sign the amendment. BR courts charge $30 for an Amendment of up to 5 creditors. If the case is already closed, the court will charge a fee of, I think, $300 to reopen the case.
