Bankruptcy is a FEDERAL law, in a FEDERAL court...the State you filed in makes little difference. Didn't you notice that on your obvious last time through...all the documents say something like "US Federal Bankruptcy Court for the District of XYZ"? No? What a surprise...maybe if you don't see how it beenfits you right then, you don't think its important.
Under the bankruptcy laws effective on October 17, 2005, Chapter 7 cannot be filed unless the debtor was discharged from the previous Chapter 7 or bankruptcy more than eight years ago.
The debtor cannot file a Chapter 13 unless: (1) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 7, 11 or 12 more than four years ago; or (2) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 13 more than two years ago.
That's only a very small part of an answer to your question...the real one being: Until you substantially change your ways....likely just about everything in your spending habits and probably even how and what you feel you deserve from others and yourself....you'll just continue being a bankrupt... Hey...wake up...what your doing...what your taking from others...it obviously ain't working for you and certainly ain't making you rich. Change. NOW.

If you filed a Chapter 13 in California and now live in Texas can you dismiss that case and file a Chapter 7?
No. Bankruptcy is not a state governed court. All bankruptcies are filed in Federal Courts. Once the Court has made a ruling it will stand. The judgment is valid in All 50 States. Sorry. Yes. Many states have opted out of federal bankruptcy filing, some states allow the petitioner to choose whether they want to file a state or a federal bankruptcy. The best choice obviously is the one that is most advantageous for the petitioner. A chapter 13 can be converted into a chapter 7 if the BK petitioner can show the trustee that they cannot meet the requirements for the original 13 filing, regardless if it is a state or federal filing. Because of the strict exemptions allowed in a Chapter 7, it would be prudent to seek legal counsel before taking any action.

Generally speaking, US states require that the party filing for the divorce actually live in the state where they file. In your case, that would apparently be Arizona. If you have more than one residence, it can get complicated. However, since you're going to be seeing a lawyer anyway to do the filing, they can evaluate the specifics and inform you if you need to file elsewhere.

File an Extension for State Taxes Too?
If you require an extension on the filing of your taxes, do not forget to file an extension for state taxes too. Of course, if you live in a state like Florida that does not have a personal income tax, then you will not need to worry about filing taxes at all. In a majority of other states filing an extension is essential. You may incur certain fees or expenses if you fail to file an extension for your state taxes. Be sure to research the requirements for your state on receiving an extension for the filing of state taxes.
