St. Cloud, FL Bankruptcy Law Firms & Lawyers

The caes is not closed until the judge enters the order closing the case. Any movement of assets (including sale of the house) must be approved by the judge until the case is closed.

Since you are unfamiliar with the process, and it is fairly complicated, you should consult with an experienced bankruptcy attorney in your area. Most attorneys will offer a no-obligation initial consultation at little or no charge. You can find out what is involved, and then decide whether to use that (or another) attorney or attempt to file yourself.

Your facts are very unclear.  When you say you "since had other creditors", what does that mean?  Do you mean you incurred new debts after you filed your prior bankruptcy case, or do you mean you had debts that you incurred prior to filing your prior bankruptcy case that you failed to include on your schedules? Bankruptcy only discharges debts that are owed prior to the date the case is filed.  If these debts fall into that category, then you may not need to do anything depending on which chapter you filed, whether assets were distributed in the case, and the court decisions regarding unscheduled debts in your jurisdiction. You need to consult with a bankruptcy attorney in your area.
