Why would they send a request for notice if the case is a clear no asset case?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
You are assuming that your creditors know that you "clearly have a no asset case." Many times trustees will find more assets in a pro se case than in a case where the finest attorney is hired to represent a high income debtor. And if you left a creditor off of the matrix, you can blame the creditor to ask for notice from the court. The creditor has the legal right to receive notice that you appear to be denying it. And it is not like it costs a creditor anything to file this document.

Can my husband file bankruptcy without his co-signer?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
A person cannot file with an ex-wife. He can file with you (his present wife) if necessary or alone. His liability related to those three joint accounts will probably be discharged in the bankruptcy case if he is eligible for a bankruptcy discharge. However, the creditor can still pursue his ex-wife for payment since her debts will not be discharged in your husband's bankruptcy case. She will continue to owe the debts in full. In other words, she will be left holding the bag! In the divorce decree there might have been an allocation of debts so she might be able to go after your husband for reimbursement if the divorce court required your husband to pay those debts and he didn't.

If I just finished my 5 year bankruptcy case, how do I get the title to my vehicle cleared so I can sell it?

Sally J Elkington
Answered by attorney Sally J Elkington (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Elkington Law
If your vehicle was paid in full or crammed down through your plan, and you have received your discharge order, you should request your pink slip. Denying you such may be a violation of the discharge order. If you don't receive it after requesting it in writing, contact an attorney to reopen your case and bring an action against the lender.
