What is the quickest and easiest way to get documentation that the mortgage is reaffirmed?

Paul D Stuber
Answered by attorney Paul D Stuber (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Paul Stuber
If the mortgage was reaffirmed there would be documentation in the court's file. However, even though the statute says you shall reaffirm not everyone does. If you just continued to make payments, as many do, you would still have the same contracts with the Mortgage lender only they are only enforceable against the property. That all being said, I believe from what you have said, you own the property and if the mortgage company agrees to a pay off figure, it should not stop a refinance. Just because you got a discharge does not mean that the bankruptcy is closed. You will need to show that the Trustee set it as a no asset case and it has been closed. That way the Trustee has abandoned the property back to you. If it is still an asset case you will need a release from the Trustee.

Can a fraud suit be filed against someone who has filed chapter 13?

Jeffrey David Solomon
Answered by attorney Jeffrey David Solomon (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Jeffrey Solomon
A complaint objecting to the discharge of a debt by the debtor for fraud can be filed in a chapter 13 as well as a chapter 7. This is a very involved proceeding and fraud must be established. But we are talking about the creditor objecting to the debtor's discharge. From your question it sounds like you are accusing the bank of not acting properly by perhaps not recording a mortgage. You should consult an attorney with the details.
