Can a discharged utility debt become a collection after bankruptcy?
Wiki User
∙ 13y ago
A utility company may not collect any debt that was discharged in a Chapter 7/13 bankruptcy. The discharge injunction, in most cases, prevents a creditor (including a utility company) from collecting a debt that was discharged. However, the utility company can, and often does, require a security deposit before resuming utility services.

Can you restart a frozen pension after bankruptcy is discharged or does it become obsolete?
I don't really understand your term "frozen pension." Was it not exempt from the bankruptcy proceedings? Or was it held until a ruling was made and then released when the bankruptcy was discharged?
Would bankruptcy eliminate a private student loan for over 100000?
It is possible that a portion of the loans would be discharged in bankruptcy, perhaps all, but that is difficult to assess without all pertinent information. However new bankruptcy reform will become law as of Oct. 17, 2005, which will not allow any student loans to be discharged, with the exception of a valid "undue hardship" defense.

Depends on if the loan is actually secured by a Deed of trust (which has become much more popular) or by an actual mortgage.
Will a judgment be dischared if you go bankrupt?
This really depends on whether the judgment is a dischargeable debt in bankruptcy. There are some debts that you cannot eliminate in bankruptcy and they will continue to exist after the bankruptcy. Generally judgments from credit cards, medical bills or personal loans can be discharged but they can become non dischargeable if the creditor claims fraud or misrepresentation within the bankruptcy.
You kept making car payments after discharged in chapter 7 if you stop paying and don't surrender the car can the lender go and undo your bankruptcy?
No. But, the vehicle will become a repossession if payments are not made.
Can you file chapter 7 again if you filed bankruptcy in 2001?
Yes, but new bankruptcy reform will become effective on Oct 17, 2005. Some previous filings may or may not be deemed retroactive as to when they can be filed, as the new law will change the time frame to eight years. It will also become very difficult to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy if the debtor has any disposable income. IRS guidelines will be used to determine the type of bankruptcy that will be allowed.
I filed bankruptcy in July and included my car in the bankruptcy it discharged out of court in Oct its now December and they still havent picked up the car how long after that does the car become mine?
unless you opted to keep your car and continue to make payments, they should have repoed it already. in other words, if you still want to keep the car you can only if you keep paying for it.
