What do I Need to Prevent Filing For Bankruptcy

Most often people end up filing for bankruptcy because they can no longer pay their bills. The largest and most important of these bills is their home mortgage. While many will tell you the only way out of foreclosure and endless bills is bankruptcy, there are other options.

A foreclosure attorney can help extend the amount of time you have to catch up on bills. Sometimes they can even eliminate the foreclosure altogether. Sometimes lenders make mistakes during the foreclosure process, and sometimes borrowers rights get violated. Only a good lawyer will know and recognize when these things are happening; there are many new laws in place that are designed to help borrowers protect their rights.

The best option is to avoid filing for bankruptcy. If it is possible to save your home without this dire step, then definitely look into a good foreclosure attorney. Saving your credit can help out immensely in the future.

The Texas Rangers Potentially Face Bankruptcy?

A San Francisco Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the potential bankrutpcy of Major League Baseball's Texas Rangers.

According to a Bloomberg report, the Texas Rangers may be headed for bankruptcy as a result of stumbling blocks with their sale initiated by controller and billionaire Thomas Hicks, of Hicks Sports Group, LLC. It is said that either the sale’s terms need to be determined or another buyer found.

Monarch Alternative Capital, which is said to be captaining the group of creditors owed money by Hicks Sports Group, LLC may take action to block the sale due to a $525 million default in debt from last year. A move like this would potential force the team into bankruptcy.

Although the debt discussions are private, it is said that the group of creditors is seeking $30 million additional funds from the sale of the Texas Rangers.

Unscheduled Property Belongs to the Bankruptcy Estate

A San Francisco Bankruptcy Attorney discusses unscheduled property

Can you reopen a bankruptcy case 70 years after it was closed for purpose of administration? Yes you can. In re Dunning Brothers Co 2009 WL 2842734. It is well settled that unscheduled property of the debtor is still property of the estate. This estate was closed in 1936. Debtor failed to schedule 3 parcels of real property that railroad had easements and now which to acquire. Issues the Court was concerned with: does Bankruptcy Act still apply (yes it does), whether a post Northern Pipeline bankruptcy court exercise jurisdiction to reopen (it may), and whether the changes over the years “for cause” standard for reopening make any difference (they do not). Case reopened and administered.

Are Creditor Judgements Against Debtors Dischargeable in Bankruptcy

A San Francisco Bankruptcy Attorney explains creditor judgements as it pertains to bankruptcy filings...

As a San Francisco Bankruptcy Attorney, I know the reality is that creditors have been getting judgments against debtors who have not paid their debts off. For these debtors, one of the major questions is if that judgment is discharged in bankruptcy. A judgment lien is not automatically dischargeable. The creditor must obtain a judgment from the court. Then, to create a lien, it must be perfected under applicable non-bankruptcy law (usually the State or county in which the asset is located). For real estate, this usually involves obtaining a certified abstract of the judgment from the court that issued it, and recording it with the county recorder’s office wherever the property is located that the creditor wants the lien to attach.

If certain requirements are met, then the judgment lien can be discharged. The bankruptcy code section that states this is 11 U.S.C. 522(f), which allows a lien to be removed to the extent that it impairs an exemption to which the debtor would have been entitled in the absence of the lien. This is basically a mathematical calculation, and depends of course on the value of the asset, the amount of any senior liens, and the amount of the available exemptions (usually governed by the laws of the State where the bankruptcy case is filed, but not always.
