I am NOT an attorney. However, I have not heard of your situation stopping the lender from GETTING a judgment. COLLECTING on that judgment is another deal in itself. I suggest you call a local attorney for state specific advice.
== == In the event that you got into a car accident and it was not your fault but the other driver's, if he is insured, his insurance company is liable to pay for the damages of your vehicle.
On the other hand, if the other driver is not insured, your own insurance company, provided you have a policy regarding uninsured or underinsured drivers, will be responsible for the damages your vehicle has incurred. They however, may have a right of action against the person responsible for the accident.
The person who caused the damage to your vehicle is ultimately responsible for the damage to your vehicle regardless of whether there is an applicable insurance coverage or not. Whether you actually have the repairs done is none of their business.

You can't file any legal action against the non-paying tenant until the chapter 13 has been dismissed or the court grants your relief from stay motion. You can also file a motion to have the entire case dismissed if the failure to pay rent is a breach of the chapter 13 plan. If the tenant is still in the property, you will want to file an eviction lawsuit and not a small claims lawsuit.
Can you sue the city for damages done to your car by bumps and potholes in the road?
In some towns or cities yes. We can in Canada. *Filing a lawsuit for any reason should be a last resort rather than the first choice. In US cities a motorist who has incurred damage should file a complaint with the city street department. Please be advised, generally a claim will not be considered valid if the pothole or obstruction that caused the damage was not previously reported to the proper agency.
Perfectly legal, so long as they follow "peaceful repossession". If your vehicle is being repossessed, you may have some rights. For example, you may prohibit repossessors from carrying arms on your property, but ultimately, if they have an order of repossession for that car, they have a legal right to take possession of the vehicle they are there to repossess. They may not open locked doors or gates, or enter any vehicle other than the one they're repossessing.
The 'law' simply says DO NOT BREACH THE PEACE. The courts on the other hand have added a few fine points to the intepatation. IF the debtor refuses to give you the car, leave; If the debtor tells you to get off the propert, leave; if the car is behind a locked gate/door, leave; basically if the debtor objects in any way, LEAVE. Most repo company trucks are equipped with cameras and recorders to video the proceedings. That protects the agent AND the debtor. The actual California statute states the following: California Commercial Code
Division 9. Secured Transactions
Chapter 6. Default
§ 9609. Secured party's right to take possession after default
(a) After default, a secured party may do both of the following:

(b) A secured party may proceed under subdivision (a) in either of the following ways:
(1) Pursuant to judicial process.
(2) Without judicial process, if it proceeds withoutbreach of the peace.
(c) If so agreed, and in any event after default, a secured party may require the debtor to assemble the collateral and make it available to the secured party at a place to be designated by the secured party which is reasonably convenient to both parties.

How can you find repo agents in Texas?
One can find them in the phone book under Collateral Recovery or one can find them delivering repos to auto auction.
You can run but you can't hide.
Maybe, if the account was assigned by the original creditor, and the original credit agreement had a stipulation that the account holder agreed to that states a collection agency will have the same rights as the OC. Which is a bit confusing to say the least, but it is one reason that consumer rights laws are so difficult to enforce. The state SOL for debt only applies to lawsuits, it does not mean that once the SOL expires collection procedures will end or the debt is invalid. But, it basically comes down to the same thing, if the debtor cannot or will not voluntarily pay the debt, then a lawsuit is needed, and the SOL will apply. Confused?...me too!
What are your rights in Texas when the repo man is trying to repo your car?
- You have the right to surrender your vehicle to the lender voluntarily.
- You have the right to try to prevent the repo agent from recovering your vehicle, but you have a right to an attorney when you are arrested for actively attempting to hinder a lender in the recover of their collateral.
- You have the right--no, that's a responsibility--to pay the loan as you contracted to pay it.
- Once the vehicle is recovered, you have the right to claim any personal property you foolishly left inside the vehicle, and to pay the storage lot the fees they assess for storing it for you.
That's about it.

PA does require any third party repossession to be done by a licensed repossessor. A third party repossession is one that is completed by a person who is not an employee of the finance company. The license is not the only thing that you need though. Any finance compnay will require that you are bonded and properly insured. This con be the expensive part.
Ask your B/K attorney for state specific advice. I usually reccommend you call a local towing company to tow it away.
