Can a wage garnishment be done after I filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
When was the debt made? Was the debt listed in your bankruptcy? I would suggest that you discuss this with your bankruptcy attorney as it may be very simple to resolve and the creditor may have to pay any fees to your attorney if there was a violation of the bankruptcy law.

Upside down in my mortgage, 650,000 judgement and other liens against me. How do I strip the iens?

Roger Brian Irion
Answered by attorney Roger Brian Irion (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Brian Irion
In a Chapter 13, but not in a Chapter 7, a debtor may seek to have an entirely undersecured lien on their home "stripped."  The procedure is different in the different districts, but the concept is the same, and all are based on a watershed case: In In re Zimmer, 313 F.3d 1220, 1223-1224 (9th Cir. 2002), debtors applied to the court through an adversary proceeding for a judgment determining a junior lienor’s interest to be wholly unsecured, reasoning that the junior lien was unsecured because a senior lien exceeded the value of the property.  After an exhaustive analysis of opinions throughout the country, the Ninth Circuit agreed with the debtors.

Is there a limitation of time that they can pursue me for the balance payment?

Peter Maurice Lively
Answered by attorney Peter Maurice Lively (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Offices of Peter M. Lively
Yes, there is a statute of limitations period after which you will have an affirmative defense of violation of that statute if you are sued by the creditor. The limitations period for a general breach of contract is four years from the default date.
