In case of bankruptcy dismmissal is the debtor obligated to pay the creditors?

If the case was dismissed (not discharged) then you are still responsible for everything. Dismissed = you owe everything the same as before filing Discharged = bankruptcy completed and you owe nothing more. Speak with an attorney about your specific situation. If you can not find an attorney, contact your local Bar association and they will refer you to one.


If criminal case of violent gets dismissed by the judge and the DA reopen and charged you again for the same thing twice is that legal?

It all depends on the manner in which the original case was "dismissed." If it was Dismissed WITHOUTprejudice, that means that the judge found some legal deficiency with the case but did not bar the prosecution from re-filing it after the deficiency was corrected. If it was Dismissed WITH prejudice that means that the judge threw it out entirely and barred the prosecutor from bringing the exact same charge for the exact same offense again. It sounds like your 'dismissal" may have been the first type.


If your chapter 13 bankruptcy was dismissed in 2005 can you file again?

One can file a bankruptcy case at any time. The only issues upon filing will be:1. Under what Chapter will one be permitted to file;2. Whether one will get the benefit of the automatic stay while the case is pending; and3. Whether one will get a discharge at the end of the case.If a prior case was filed but no discharge order was ever issued, a stay of all collection efforts will issue automatically and the debtor may be eligible for a discharge at the end of the case. If a discharge order was indeed entered in the prior case, a Debtor must wait for specified periods if he or she is to benefit from an automatic stay and receive a discharge in the new case. The following is a table summarizing the waiting period required by law to stay creditors and get a discharge of debts:Prior Case Chapter 7 Chapter 13Chapter 7 8 years 4 yearsChapter 11 8 years 4 yearsChapter 12 6 years 4 yearsChapter 13 6 years 2 years- BensonBankruptcy.comYou can refile after your bankruptcy case has been discharged by the court. I filed a chapter 7 in December, it was discharged March 15 and I filed a chapter 13 on the 22nd. You can file chapter 13 as soon as your bankruptcy is dismissed but can only file chapter 7 every 7 years."Dismissed" means the court threw your case out without "Discharging" any of your debt.You can either file Chap 13 immediately, or go to another Chap 7 filing after waiting 6 months...sort of a penalty period. Unless that has changed to, as someone said, 6 or 7 years.www.nolo.com has most of the information you will need.You cannot file a Chapter 7 case for 6 years after the filing date of a prior Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 which received Discharge. You can file a Chapter 13 nearly anytime so long as no other case is pending (with some exceptions). (FYI filing a Chapter 13 immediately after a Chapter 7 is called a "Chapter 20"). As of today (2/11/05) there is legislation pending in the United States Senate which I believe will increase the time you have to wait to 8 years, but this law may or may not get passed.However, if the case was dismissed (and not Discharged), one can normally re-file immediately after dismissal unless the Court places a bar to re-filing, or unless the circumstances create a bar to re-filing. Sometimes, if the Court feels that a debtor acted in bad faith or for some other reason, the Court may bar the debtor from re-filing for some period of time. Or, once a Motion for Relief is filed by a creditor, if the debtor voluntarily dismisses his or her own case, then that debtor is automatically barred from filing a new case for 180 days. Please keep in mind that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice, it is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant in any way.


Can chapter 13 be filed after chapter 7 is dismissed to save your home?

Yes, but you need to find out if there is a 180 day filing bar. (Yes automatically if there was a Motion for Relief from Stay). If the case was dismissed without the filing bar and without prejudice, then you can refile immediately.

How do you get the memo out from underneath the the filing cabinet in hotel dusk?

To get the memo from underneath the filing cabinet you just use your crow bar you got from the linen closet. Just get out your crow bar and tap on the filing cabinet. Then just drag the crowbar to the bottom of the filing cabinet and lull it towards you with your stylus. My tip would be to save it because it might take a few goes to get it right


How long do it take a case that is nolle pros to be dismissed in the state of Maryland?

Technically, a case that is "Nolle Prosequied" is not 'dismissed.' It is not a finding by the prosecutor that the crime never took place. A Nolle Prosequi" is a decision by the prosecutor that (for whatever reason) they choose not to go forward with the prosecution of the offense and the case, therefore, is simply dropped. See: http://definitions.uslegal.com/n/nolle-prosequi/ ". . . . .the entry of a nolle prosequi is not an adjudication on the merits of the prosecution, and the legal protection against double jeopardy will not automatically bar the charges from being brought again in some fashion."
