It's basically an agreement between the debtor and creditor on how the debtor is to pay the creditor that arises when debtor has filed bankruptcy.
"How is a claim filed as an unsecured creditor to the US bankruptcy court case 07-23686-RG?"
You should have no problems filing an amendment to add the creditor.
No. And if you knew they were a creditor, you could be subject to fraud charges for having filed papers with the court swearing you were declaring your entire financial status and known creditors.
Yeah. It's called you being a dumbarsh.
Creditor receive a notice from your BK from the BK court.
For any joint debts, the creditor will come after the spouse who has not filed bankruptcy.
I assume you mean after YOU filed bankruptcy (the creditor's filing bankruptcy doesn't affect your garnishment, except maybe to change who's "garnisheeing"--NOT "garnishing"--your wages). If so, contact your attorney so he/she can bring the creditor into court for violating the automatic stay.
The creditor would have problems enforcing a lien if the debt was included in the bankruptcy. If they were paid off, investigate further. If they were not included, then the lien may be valid.
