Can I stop my chapter 7 bankruptcy? How?

Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
It is extremely unlikely that a bankruptcy judge will agree to order a dismissal of your chapter 7 case, especially as you have assets that the trustee can sell to pay your creditors. Filing a Chapter 7 is like stepping off a cliff and filling without an attorney is like doing this with a blindfold on. My best suggestion is to consider whether you can convert to a Chapter 13 to avoid losing the property. But I would not be interested in working with your case, sorry! Too late for me to offer you any meaningful help. e.

No your case is not closed until the trustee files paperwork with the court. The discharge only lifts the stay. The way this should have been handled would be to obtain written permission from the trustee to sell the property. Escrow will not close without the trustee's involvement. Also not sure how you were able to exempt your interest in this rental property. Sounds like you need to take your file to another bankruptcy attorney to review and expect to pay a consultation fee.
