The answer is a little more complicated than it should be It's called an action in replevin. He has to file papers with the court and get a court order allowing him to go on to this person's property and take posession of his vehicle.

My wife co-signed for her mother on a bank credit card. Now married, my mother is filing bankruptcy. Will my wife be paying?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Bereliani Law Firm, PC
As a cosigner your wife is responsible for debts not paid by the original card signer, that is the meaning of co-signer. You can attempt to take your wife's name off as co-signer but I doubt the credit card company will allow this as that was a condition of granting the card. Once your mother in law files for bankruptcy they cannot collect the debt from her and will next pursue to collect the funds from your wife. You can choose to pay them off through a lump sum settlement or continue regular payments. If you have other debts yourselves, you can file for bankruptcy. It all depends on your situation. I'd recommend consulting an attorney.

The mortgage company Ditech, servicing my mortgage has filed for Chapter 11 Bankrupcy

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
If you have a claim against them you should file a proof of claim by April 25, 2019 in the Bankruptcy Court for the southern district of New York. This has nothing to do with making your mortgage payments.
