Can you file bankruptcy twice in Michigan?

Answer 1

Bankruptcy is a Federal court and legal action.

Your State makes little difference (albeit some federal district courts use the laws common to the States in their jurisdiction for some things in their rulings).

* Bankruptcy laws were reformed in 2005 making the time limit between chapter 7 filings 8 years from the time of discharge and the time for filing a chapter 13 after a chapter 7 discharge 4 years.

Answer 2

As many times as you can fit in...but you have to wait specified time limits....HEY - FILING BANKRUPTCY ALOT...NOT PAYING BILLS, NOT KEEPING YOUR PROMISES....WAKE UP...WHAT YOUR DOING APPARENTLY ISN'T WORKING! Bankruptcy is ALWAYS in a Federal Court and under Federal Laws. (Yes, some Federal Districts use the prevailing rules regarding some things in their area...like what may be personal property compared to real property, but the overall rules are universal). YOUR STATE GENERALLY MAKES NO DIFFERENCE. Bankruptcy laws were reformed in 2005 making the time limit between chapter 7 filings 8 years from the time of discharge and the time for filing a chapter 13 after a chapter 7 discharge 4 years.

Answer 3

Yes if you wait long enough to do so.

See http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_long_do_you_have_to_wait_to_file_bankruptcy_again for the number of years, as it depends on the type of bankruptcy.

Since bankruptcy laws are federal, it does not matter what state you are in as to the amount of time you would have to wait.
