Can wages be garnished after filing bankruptcy?

No!! except in cases of I believe child support, or money owed to the I.R.S. and stuff. But your average VISA, MASTERCARD, or J.C. PENNY charge account ? No they can't garnish you once you file chapter 7 or 11, or whatever. Of course if you open a new line of credit AFTER you file, then yeah, 'cause you cant file bankruptcy again for 7 years I believe it is. (But what idiot, would wind up back in bankruptcy so quickly ? filing is such a nightmare now, it makes you want to manage your spending much more carefully)

Will cars still be existing in the future?

I think that cars will still be existing but they will not be that popular. Since technology is improving, better transport will be made.

Can an investigator harrass you at your job when looking for a repossessed auto?

The short answer is no... Repossessions are like collections, there are rules. However, they are allowed to take the automobile where ever they find it just so long as they do not enter the house (or) break into a closed garage. Now, you should know -- if you have the recourse to pay the lender -- contact them, the repossession company cannot deal on their behalf. It is best if you cannot possibly pay, to surrender the vehicle, get your possessions out of it, and turn in your plates.

Who is at fault if car 3 runs into the back of car 2 because car 2 has crashed into the back of car 1?

Car 3 is at fault for striking car 2.

If car 2 and car 1 are sitting stationary (e.g.: at a traffic light) then car 3 is responsible for entire accident

The charge may vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction but it will probably be some variation of; "following too closely" - "failing to have vehicle under control" - "failing to give full time and attention" etc.

If moving in traffic, car 3 (and car 2) should have been maintaining a safe following distance from cars in front of them in order to avoid the collision.

You are at fault if you are car three as I surmise.

What happens when you can not pay what you owe after you repo your car?

If you mean, what happens after your car is repo'd and you cannot afford to pay the difference then I can explain.

1st. I repo for a living and have seen this 1st hand - there are a LOT of GOOD people out there that have had collateral repo'd

Anyways, you will get a letter from the lienholder stating the collateral was sold at auction, and for how much. They will deduct the amt it sold for from the total bill you owe (loan/repo fee/auction fee etc). So, 10k owed, 5k from Auction = you still owe 5k.

Next they will ask that you contact them to make arrangements to pay this amount. This whole process always makes me shake my head..the Debtor couldn't pay the original note and now the lienholder, so HOT to get the collateral back, sells it for pennys on the dollar and then wants you to keep paying....

If you ignore this, don't call, don't make arrangements, they MAY send you a settlement letter, which could be an amount as low as 40% of the difference. In my example they would offer you to settle for 2,500. Sounds like a good deal, but, they want it all, not payments, usually. At the point of the settlement letter, I would call them and ask to arrange a pay schedule on the offered amt. Up to you.

If you ignore the settlement letter, you will get a new bill from them, which will include lawyer costs, the FULL amt of the loan, any court fees etc because they will be coming after you in civil court - prepare to get garnished.

Bottom line, if you got repo'd and you are still in a situation that you can barely afford anything, youre better off filing bankruptcy and moving on.

Hope this helps.

Can a cosigners credit get the car repossessed?

As long as the loan for the unit is paid each month, the collateral will never be repo'd.

Will a co signers bankruptcy in Maryland effect your credit in pa?

If your co-signer has declared bankruptcy but you have not and are current on your payments it will affect your credit until the original loan is paid off regardless of what state you are in.

Once that loan is paid off and your connection to the other persons credit is severed you will operate on your own credit score.

What are the chances of surviving a car rolling over without your seatbelt on?

I was actually in a rollover car accident in 2009. It was a suburban and there were 6 kids in it, including me and I was the only not wearing a seatbelt. Everyone survived and my mom got the worst, her arm was ripped to shreds. But I got out with only a couple scratches on my arm.

I think my case was just lucky. I don't think it is likely for someone to survive a car crash without a seatbelt in general.

Is a home safe as secure as a bank safe deposit box?

No. Definitely not. A Banks safe deposit box is much much safer than a safety deposit box in a home.

Can you cancel an auto lease contract?

It depends on where you are. In some U.S. states, state law allows a purchaser a few days or a week to change his or her mind. This is generally called a "cooling off period."

In others (TN is one of these), the moment you sign the contract, you are obligated and the only way to get out of the contract is to get the dealer to agree to cancel it, which is very unlikely.

Can someone report a car stolen if they brought the car in for service and dont want to pay in Texas?

NOPolice usually won't get involved in this dispute.

They will usually tell you to sue as it is a civil matter

If they do take a report and investigate it is almost certain that the person filing the complaint will be charged with "filing a false complaint" (what our police call it)

The basis is: you take your vehicle in for repair, the dealer has the right to hold until the repair is paid for. This is the oldest form of lien.

In some way you agree to a diagnoses or repair that will cost $XXX.

That is a valid contract.

At this point if you won't pay and they won't release the car then it becomes a civil law matter rather than criminal.

What happens when you sublease a car and the company that you leased from goes into liquidation?
