What's the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 is the most common form of bankruptcy and requires debtors to give non-exempt property over to bankruptcy trustees. Non-exempt property could be:
•Clothing
•Furnishings
•Vehicles
•Work equipment
Once these trustees receive possession of non-exempt property, they're required to sell it and pay the relevant creditors. At this point, the balance of loans is no longer eligible for collection.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is better described as reorganization bankruptcy. If you have non-exempt property that you want to keep, you can establish monthly payments that will eliminate your debt over an agreed upon period of time.
