A dismissed bankruptcy cannot be discharged. Once a BK is dismissed it is no longer valid and creditors may resume collection action and/or repossession of property. The petitioner of the dismissed BK must wait the required amount of time before filing a new bankruptcy petition.

Presuming it was a voluntary filing, that your creditors didn't force you into it involuntarialry...you can ask and file with the court for dismissal. The protection BK affords is then ceased and the creditors can pursue actions to collect the debt.

Bankruptcies will stay on your credit report for 7 to 10 years. The only way to get it removed is to have the courthouse where it was filed remove it or the credit bureaus remove it themselves. You can dispute it yourself to the credit bureaus or hire a credit repair service to do it for you.

Only holders of undischarged debt can come after assets or income after a discharged bankruptcy. Some debts may not be dischargeable in a bankruptcy, such as tax debt. The meaning of dismissed is different from discharged, however. A dismissed bankruptcy would be one that did not conclude. In that case, creditors may attempt any legal means to recover what is owed.
