Yes. As soon as you are sworn in you are a member of that military service. At that point, you can be discharged dishonorably. There's no way. There is only one way to be dishonorably discharged from the military--through a general court-martial--and they wouldn't court-martial someone until they'd come on active duty. Let's throw out a situation here: You join the Delayed Entry Program of the United States Army on July 15 for shipment to Basic Training on September 15. On August 15 you go to a party where, under the influence of alcohol and hard drugs, you murder two people. The police department that arrested you will notify the Army that you have been charged with two counts of murder; the Army will immediately issue you an Under Other than Honorable Conditions discharge--the worst discharge that can be granted without court-martialing someone. Now let's try the most bizarre set of circumstances imaginable: You live next to an Army post. You went on post and killed your recruiter while he was leaving the PX. They will still give you to the civilian authorities to prosecute.

Are accounts after bankruptcy included in bankruptcy?

Any debt that you accumulate before your bankruptcy filing and have listed on your petition will be eliminated when you receive your discharge as long as your creditors do not file an injunction against you. After you receive your discharge you are welcome and able to open new credit accounts but any debt you accumulate will not be considered a part of the bankruptcy you filed before opening the account.


Can you receive a lump sum pension after a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

If you exempted it in full, yes. If you did not exempt it, and you knew before you filed that you would be getting it, you have committed a fraud on the court and perjury. If you were entitled to receive it before or within 180 days after the bankruptcy (chapter 7) was closed or you got your discharge, it goes to the trustee. If you did not know you were entitled to or going to receive this money before or during or within 180 days after the discharge, and you got it more than 180 days after discharge, yes, you can. Some pensions are exempt under state or federal law, so consult a local attorney if you are not sure.
