If a client files a chapter 13 bk in 2002 and converts it to a chapter 7 and is discharged in 2005, can they file another chapter 7 in 2011? What law clarifies this question?
i am not an attorney or a law student, I was simply wondering. Thank you.

years ago I purchased a 2 BR mobile home. The interest rate of the loan was at 18%.The total amount borrowed was 32,000.00. After 2 years I had another child now making the home too small and after 4 years of making all my monthly payments in full and on time, I realized I was getting no where fast. So I decided to file for chapter 13 bankruptcy which would consolidated the amount of the loan down to only what the MH blue book value was which was 16,000.00. I then made 3 yrs of payments through a trustee and I now own the home, but with no land attached it’s worth the same as a car. I have a substantial amount of income and have been on the same job for 6 years, but due to the bankruptcy my credit sucks and I can not even get financed for a new bed. My bankruptcy was complete and discharged a little over 1 year ago. From what I understand I need to be discharged from bankruptcy at least 2 years before I can get approved for any loan. I am in desperate need of a real home.

I had a free consultation with a attorney today in ""Florida"". he states that a family of 5 with less than ,000 dollars in income can discharge all unsecured debt. He also stated that i can have the courts pay what is owed on my vehicle and repay my past mortgage payments and car off in 5 years through the trustee. Has anyone had a similar plan or know for sure this i true??

I have been going thru a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy and just received a letter stating
ORDER ON TRUSTEE’S MOTION TO DISMISS WITHOUT PREJUDICE
What does this mean??

I did talk with my attorney about this but he gave me no kind of answers, so I will not use him again, for help. I am currently in a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, and what I wanted to know could I stop paying on this one and let them discharge it, and then turn back around and file either a 7 or a 13 which ever one will be best for me. The problem is this: I have alot of medical problems and at the present have 00.00 in medical bills I just cannot pay. I have tried to pay on them, but just do not have enough of money to pay them, for I don’t make much at all.I do want to keep my house, and I do have a 2nd mortage on it for about 4000.00. Could I do a 7 and keep my house, or would it be best to do another 13. And can I do one after this one would be discharged? I am so mad at this attornery for everything I asked him, he would say, I don’t know, but yet he was telling me to quit paying on this one and let them discharge it and then come and see him, but he could not give me specific answers as to these questions I am asking above. I know I will have to retain a different attornery for I will not use an idiot like him. Can you please give me some answers for I am in a mess, for I have no medical ins. at all, and I am all alone with no one to help me with this. I have been told if you file a 7 that a 2nd mortage can be terminated also, is this true? Any help will be so deeply apprecitated and please no smart answers for I am under so much stress about this, What can I do?
