The Changing Landscape of Auto Assets in Bankruptcy, Teleconference

May 1, 2015

Q. Car repossessed. Possible lemon law issue.

16 July 2020

A: Part of a Lemon Law claim is owning the car, which means continuing to pay for it. If you seek to file a Lemon Law claim, you'll need to catch up on your car payments before you can get it back. You might want to contact an attorney who focuses on Lemon Law to help you sort this issue out. Good luck with your case!

Q. I own a time share. Paid in full. I have received a note from the acting lawyer of a bankruptcy hearing(telephonic) .

16 July 2020

A: I'd want more specific information to issue an accurate opinion, but it sounds like the Timeshare may not be exempt and that the Trustee is attempting to sell it for the benefit of your unsecured creditors. This is probably a question best directed to your bankruptcy counsel. If you don't have one right now, you may want to hire one at some point soon. Good luck with your case!

Q. Do I need to fill out a Modified Form 410 Proof of Claim form?

16 July 2020

A: Yes. You'll want to fill out the Claim form and submit it to the Bankruptcy Court Clerk's to protect your claim. As prior counsel suggested, this may be something you'll want an attorney to help you out with. Good luck with your case!
