A chapter 7 bankruptcy case does not involve the filing of a plan of repayment as in chapter 13. Instead, the bankruptcy trustee gathers and sells the debtors nonexempt assets and uses the proceeds of such assets to pay holders of claims (creditors) in accordance with the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code.
Dismissal of a Bankruptcy Case Dismissal ordinarily means that the court stopped all proceedings in the main bankruptcy case AND in all adversary proceedings, and a discharge order was not entered. Dismissal can occur because a debtor requested the dismissal and qualifies for voluntary dismissal.
Liquidation under Chapter 7 is a common form of bankruptcy. It is available to individuals who cannot make regular, monthly, payments toward their debts. Businesses choosing to terminate their enterprises may also file Chapter 7.
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy wipes out mortgages, car loans, and other secured debts. But suppose you dont continue to pay as agreed. In that case, the lender will take back the home, car, or other collateralized property using the lenders lien rights.
So, does chapter 7 bankruptcy wipe out all debt? Well, it does and it doesnt. While it does wipe out most of your unsecured debts, there are some forms of debt that arent covered. Keep reading for more information on chapter 7 bankruptcy and what debts you can expect to be forgiven.
