During bankruptcy proceedings, under normal conditions ALL collection activity stops. The mortgage company may not foreclose, take action against you, nor call you to collect. Of course, there may be exceptions to this.

Can you file bankruptcy on a second mortgage and multiple credit cards and keep the home?
Normally, a debtor can file bankruptcy on credit cards and keep their home, but cannot file bankruptcy on any mortgages and keep the home since even a second mortgage holder has the right to foreclose if they are not paid (this is of course assuming there aren't other issues in the case, such as too much equity to keep the home, credit cards recently incurred that are declared non-dischargeable, being behind on mortgage payments, etc.). However, the laws of the particular district in which a debtor resides may provide some exceptions to this general rule. You can get rid of a second mortgage and still keep your property if you file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. If the debtor can show that the second mortgage is completely unsecured (i.e. the debtor owes more on the first mortgage than the real estate is worth) then you can file a mortgage stripping where the second mortgage is stripped of its lien on the property and you can pay a smaller percent on the mortgage than if it was a secured debt. (src: http://bankruptcylansingmi.com/utilizing-bankruptcy-remove-second-mortgage/ ) This same case law is not applicable in other jurisidctions, so one would have to investigate the laws of their particular district to see what options their jurisiction provides. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person but my opinion is that you should immediately consult with a chapter 13 bankruptcy attorney.
