Can you file for chapter 7 bankruptcy if your chapter 13 was dismissed after a year due to non-payments?

We had filed chapter 13 last October. The payments were so high we just couldn’t make the payments. The bankruptcy courts dismissed our case for non-payments. Are we eligible to file for chapter 7? Will we lose our home? We live in Ohio if that makes any difference at all. What should we expect to happen?

If I file bankruptcy do I have to pay back my reserve line of credit at my bank?

I’m ready to file for bankruptcy as I’m unemployed & in two months I’ll be out of money if I don’t get a job. I’ve borrowed about k in a reserve line of credit at my bank. My bank deducts about 0/month for this from my checking account. If I file for bankruptcy will my reserve line of credit be taken care of in the bankruptcy or do I have to pay it back, IF I’m able to file bankruptcy? Thanks.

Chapter 13 Bankrupt question, how do you make more cash?

My parents declared Chapter 13 bankruptcy. They had a business in land development and thanks to the housing bubble it collapsed. My dad unfortunately personally gauranteed some of the corporate paperwork.

Now the problem is they are starting to make more money, but the settlement keeps taking the money. Is there any way to try to make more money? Or are the doomed to their current lifestyle for the next 5 years? Any thoughts? Perhaps a bank in the Caymans?

my mortgage was charged off even though my payments were current including chapter 13 payments, Why?

I filed chapter 13 in Ohio to save my home. Three years in, Charter One sent me a letter stating they charged off my mortgage and elected not to foreclose. When I contacted them, they gave me the run around for twenty five minutes. Finally someone told me that they didn’t understand why they did it because my chapter 13 payments and mortgage was current. I checked my deed and title and no liens are on either. It show a satisfaction of mortgage. What is going on?

Do I have to include my house in chapter 13?

We are considering chapter 13 as we are deep in debt with interest rates so high we can barely afford the minimum payments. We are not behind on our mortgage. Do we have to include our 1st and 2nd mortgage in the reorganization? Or do we keep those separate? Is it all debt? Or just unsecured debt?

Bankruptcy – Should I file now?

I was involved in an accident recently (a fender bender, really–no alcohol involved or anything), and the other party is trying to sue me for 0k (my lawyer informed me that they’ll probably seek about M with pain and suffering, etc.). I’m only covered for 0k, so the rest would be on me, which by no means am I able to pay.
My question is, would it be imprudent to file for bankruptcy now? I have other debts, and the prospect of getting rid of those as well is attractive, but I’d hate to file, then if this judgment comes up ruled against me, I still would have no way to pay it. So would I have to wait until a decision is reached before I were to file for Chapter 7?
