Is it too late to file a petition with the courts after a chapter 7?

You need an attorney for bankruptcy, doing it yourself you run into problems like this. You had to have filed a petition or the case would not go anywhere. Find out from the bankruptcy clerk whether you filed a petition or not. Very odd question.

Does this loss fall on me after Divorce and selling house and ex declared bankruptcy?

It depends on where you live and the law of that state. You might want to talk to a real estate attorney licensed in your home state.

Would filing for bankruptcy clear the lien on my house?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
You really need to consult with a bankruptcy attorney. You cannot rely on a petition preparer to give you legal advice, although they are cheaper, you get what you pay for. It depends upon which chapter you are able to file. If you file a chapter 7, the trustee will get your interest in the house that is co-owned with someone else, and probably try to sell your interest in it to the co-owner. If you file a chapter 13, you will have to pay a portion of the judgment against you, as high a percentage of what is owed as you can pay over the course of 3 years, extended to 5 with court approval. You need an attorney to help with these issues.
