What is the California law regarding reaffirmation on a mortgage?

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
First of all, reaffirmation agreements are a creation of bankruptcy law, not California or any other state.  There is never any requirement to reaffirm a mortgage debt.  Some people do it so that the mortgage lenders will report the current payments on their credit reports post-bankruptcy, but that's about the only benefit.   It's certainly not required though.

Can I do something about harrassment due to a payday loan in a bankruptcy?

Sean Thomas Flynn
Answered by attorney Sean Thomas Flynn (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Law Offices of Sean T. Flynn, PLLC
You may file a lawsuit to sue the creditor for violating the discharge. If they are calling you this is a violation of the discharge. I would advise that you first contact the attorney who assisted you in the bankruptcy, since they are familiar with the case. The creditor may be liable for damages and sanctions from the bankruptcy court so I would advise you to push the matter further.

My landlord filed bankruptcy in 2011. the trustee put the house on the market. how long can we stay?

Answered by attorney Mark J Markus
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Mark J. Markus
You can stay until you are evicted.  You can try to reach an agreement with the new owners once it's sold, assuming they do not want to occupy the property.  Otherwise, they will bring an unlawful detainer action against you to have you evicted.  That process usually takes a few weeks, but is dependent solely on state law, so you should check with a landlord/tenant attorney on that. Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
