A motion to extend the time in which to file an objection to discharge is just that, it extends the time in which an objection can be filed. The question is not specific enough, but the answer is likely found in the body of the motion. What extension of time is requested?

How do you write a motion to dismiss an old IRS tax debt and include it on my bankruptcy?

If there is a judgment in a court for the IRS debt, you do not need to file a motion to include it in your bankruptcy. If the tax due was determined more than 3 years before the filing date, you include it in your Schedule F. If you have already filed your bankruptcy documents, you need to file a motion to amend Schedule F with the bankruptcy court. If the case has been closed, you will need to reopen the case, paying the filing fee, and then your motion to add the debt.

How long do you have to wait to file chapter 13 bankruptcy in Louisiana after you filed chapter 7 bankruptcy in Arkansas a few years ago in?

Assuming the chapter 7 led to a discharge, you may be able to file chapter 13 immediately, but the automatic stay may not last long without a motion to extend it indefinitely. If the filing date of the 7 was 10 years ago, you should not have this problem. Not all bankruptcy courts have interpreted the statutes and regulations the same way, so consult a local bankruptcy lawyer. Bankruptcy is a federal procedure in most states, and is the same from state to state, more or loss.


How do you respond to a motion for relief of stay?

It varies. Check your local court rules. The Massachusetts District Bankruptcy Court local rule sets 30 days as the time to reply. Things happen faster after that. If more time is needed, a motion to extend the time to file the reply must be filed and allowed by the court, usually after a hearing.

A Motion for Abandonment is a legal request made to a court to declare that a party has abandoned their claim or interest in a case.

If granted, it can lead to the dismissal of the claim or issue.


How do you correct an error on your filed bankruptcy?

It may not be necessary to correct it. Consult your bankruptcy attorney. If the case has been closed, you will have to pay to reopen the case and file a motion to make the correction. If the error makes your bankruptcy invalid, it will get complicated.


I filed bankruptcy chapter 13 back in 2007 or 2008 and I was wondering how long do I have to wait to try to file again?

If the previous 13 was dismissed before it was completed, and the dismissal was not for cause or "with prejudice" - meaning it cannot be refiled - then a new 13 bankruptcy can be filed any time. If the court thinks you are gaming the system, though, by refiling, you may have a problem. The automatic stay will only be valid for 30 days and the debtor has to file a motion to extend the automatic stay indefinitely. If the judge thinks you are not serious, s/he may deny the motion.
