Chapter 13 – How do I get my title?

By on

I have been paying on a chapter 13 for three years. my truck creditor was included as a "priority creditor". the secured portion of the debt has been paid. however, an unsecured portion still exists. still, the creditor will not send me the title until the chapter 13 is discharged two years from now. This wouldn't normally be a big deal, but the truck is in dire need of repairs ($1000+) of which I can not afford. I have had offers to buy the truck or trade it for something that is actually more affordable (and runs!). I have spoken with my trustee and they advised me to speak with the creditor and/or my lawyer. I spoke with the creditor and they advised me to speak with my lawyer. I am having problems reaching my lawyer. what actions can I take to get my title? If and when I get my lawyer, what action is he likely to suggest?

Married but live apart and filing for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?

By on

I live in Oklahoma and am married but have been living apart from my husband for several years with my daughter and have been filing head of household on my tax returns. I would like to know how I would file chapter 7 bankruptcy? does my husband have to be apart of the legal process? I have only one asset which is my car. my husband is the "owner" and I am listed as the co-borrower but I am the one who actually owns the car and makes the payments. I have been behind on my payments but have recently caught up and i would like to reaffirm the car loan? here is the bankruptcy law that pertains to this:

Married, not filing jointly, with declaration of separate households. by checking this box, debtor declares under penalty
of perjury: “My spouse and I are legally separated under applicable non-bankruptcy law or my spouse and I are living
apart other than for the purpose of evading the requirements of § 707(b)(2)(A) of the Bankruptcy Code.”

Here is the link to the bankruptcy form I found this on:
uscourts.gov/rules/BK_Forms_0…

You can file chapter 7 seperately. it might appear on his credit though because you are legally married.

Filing bankruptcy is not an easy process and there are lots of forms to be filed and do it on your own has always some missing factors… not sure your situation would allow this, but you might better talk to the lawyer or accountant, I know it will cost but better do it now than ending up paying more..

Bankruptcy Chapter 7?

By on

We filed Capter 7 Bankruptcy and it was granted in February. We still have the house loan and car loan place calling us and also sending us statements. I figured it was an overlap in getting the message to their departmrents. is this normal?
Also, we gave up our boat and the lawyer said they had 30 days( from that date – Declared bankruptcy) to pick it up and they did not. Now it is April and we get a letter from the lawyer saying we still need to give up the boat in 30 days. We are confussed and dont understand what is going on?

we gave up the house the boat and the truck in the bakruptcy
