How Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Works
A chapter 13 bankruptcy case begins by filing a petition with the bankruptcy court. Additionally they have to file the chapter 13 repayment plan. When an individual files a chapter 13 petition, an impartial trustee is appointed to administer the case. The chapter 13 trustee both evaluates the case and serves as a disbursing agent, collecting payments from the debtor and making distributions to creditors.
Individuals may use a chapter 13 proceeding to save their home from foreclosure and pay their attorney fees. The automatic stay stops the foreclosure proceeding as soon as the individual files the chapter 13 petition. The individual may then bring the past-due payments current over a reasonable period of time.
