BANKRUPTCY

The Legal Information Institute at Cornell University Law School provides the following information concerning bankruptcy: "Bankruptcy law provides for the development of a plan that allows a debtor, who is unable to pay his creditors, to resolve his debts through the division of his assets among his creditors. This supervised division also allows the interests of all creditors to be treated with some measure of equality. Certain bankruptcy proceedings allow a debtor to stay in business and use revenue generated to resolve his or her debts. An additional purpose of bankruptcy law is to allow certain debtors to free themselves (to be discharged) of the financial obligations they have accumulated, after their assets are distributed, even if their debts have not been paid in full.” If you are in need of assistance dealing with a possible bankruptcy, contact ApartmentStores Moving and Relocation and utilize the available resources.

Bankruptcy laws are part of the Federal statutes and cases are brought before a federal court instead of a state court. Individual bankruptcies can take one of two courses to completion. The first is a Chapter 7, which is a basic liquidation of most assets controlled by the debtor. The court will appoint a trustee who will take control of all non-exempt property and offer it for sale. Proceeds will be divided among the creditors according to the formula developed by the trustee. Bankruptcy laws have encountered several significant changes over the last few years and the debtor must have actuate inform before entering into Chapter 7.

Chapters 11, 12, and 13 offers the debtor the opportunity to develop a payment plan, supervised by a court appointed trustee, to pay off obligations over a period of time. These plans usually allow the debtor to rehabilate his credit to some degree. Interest is usually canceled on the debts and the amount each creditor receives is again based on a formula developed by the court appointed trustee. Payments will be made to the trustee who will distribute the monies to the creditors. It is important for individuals to understand that missing a payment to the trustee is not an option.

Before filing for any bankruptcy the debtor needs to know what to accept and choose the plan that will allow them to become solvent again. It is also important to remember that any bankruptcy will remain on the credit report for at least 7 years and usually 10 years. It is necessary that the debtor have information to make correct decisions.
