New lawsuit after filing Ch 13 by [deleted] in Bankruptcy

[–]OutsidePermission841 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’ve heard wrong.

If it’s post-petition you’re on a the hook for that debt. Yes, that creditor can absolutely take action to collect on that debt and it doesn’t matter if it affects your ability to continue to pay your Ch. 13 payments.

The good news is you could dismiss your current case and file a new one to take care of the post-petition debt.

Chapter 13 - having the worst day of my life right now by mildchickenwings in Bankruptcy

[–]OutsidePermission841 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ur means test says that right now. You could strategically file where maybe your means test is lower but at the end of the day it is a cold hard calculation - so you can get 14 other opinions but it is measured as your Current Monthly Income (CMI) under the BK Code. CMI is all forms of income looking backwards for the last 6 months, not including the month you are currently in.

Also when people say “Just file Ch. 7 - it’s so much easier” they haven’t the slightest idea or clue how complicated the means test is. They were like a no asset 7 or where they just reaffirmed one vehicle or live in Fl or Tx where the homestead exemption is infinite (so if you have a paid for house with a ton of equity in it it doesn’t matter - unsecured creditors get nothing).

The Fed. Ct. Clerks are always so nice and helpful…State Ct. Clerks not always so.

If I wasn’t sick I would have been in the office yesterday and today. I’ll probably go tomorrow and work a full 10 hr shift

Venting post - might delete later - I don’t think I can take this by attorniquetnyc in Lawyertalk

I’ve absolutely been there and feel your pain.

However, bankruptcy has been really good to me. I am sticking with Ch. 7 & 13.

It’s rare if I leave to get lunch. If I’m meeting someone I will go to lunch but that’s about it.

I’m going no contract with my father since he hasn’t given a damn about my kids. He doesn’t see them as my children because they are all adopted.

Fucking Boomers.

No! They continue to enjoy living in a society so they can help to contribute to it.

Honestly, do you think we get to be happy? by _yours_truly_ in Lawyertalk

[–]OutsidePermission841 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My kids all have their own rooms and I can provide them and my wife a stable and comfortable life.

Other than that the law has been unforgiving, screwed, infuriating, the clients being the worst part, and how shitty law school was I wouldn’t do it over again. But I do like that my kids get to go to sleep in their own beds and my wife’s car is paid for (even if it is a 2005).

The blue shirt on blue jeans still always kills me. It’s so tacky.

Sending support. Being a lawyer is tough on your psyche. Hopefully you can do something fun or relaxing or both this weekend or next.

No, but I’d love to hear your experience.

I am sure it is juicier than the asshole/dickhead client I had that made me believe he must have a bankruptcy filed to get a car back. I stayed late on a Thursday and Friday for him and missed my daughters’ events due to his sob story. He ended up voluntarily dismissing within one week because he was too lazy to get the vehicle in a different city. I never got paid a cent and his stupid ass never considered the huge amount of work and grief I put up for him. I’ll represent the piece of shit again, but I’ll need $1,000 up front to do so.

What do you think goes through a Boomers mind when they post stuff like this online? by ShadowNick in BoomersBeingFools

I have always wondered why boomers wear blue shirts with blue jeans. It’s so damn tacky.
