Richard P. Busse Attorney at Law
I have received about 20 calls in the last two days allegedly from the social security administration stating that fraudulent activity is taking place under my social security number. I answered once and talked to someone with a foreign accent who said he was a social security officer. This is for sure a scheme to con elderly folks (or anyone) into providing their social security number. The social security administration does not operate like this.
If you are in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy and are experiencing a material hardship, you can extend your bankruptcy to a 7 year plan. See The Cares Act:
Sec. 1113(b)(1)(C) of the CARES Act amends 11 USC 1329 to add:
‘‘(d)(1) Subject to paragraph (3), for a plan confirmed prior
to the date of enactment of this subsection, the plan may be modified
upon the request of the debtor if—
‘‘(A) the debtor is experiencing or has experienced a material financial hardship due, directly or
indirectly, to the
coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID–19) pandemic; and
‘‘(B) the modification is approved after notice and a hearing.
‘‘(2) A plan modified under paragraph (1) may not provide
for payments over a period that expires more than 7 years after
the time that the first payment under the original confirmed plan
was due.
‘‘(3) Sections 1322(a), 1322(b), 1323(c), and the requirements
of section 1325(a) shall apply to any modification under paragraph
(1).’’.
A statute of limitations is a law setting the maximum amount of time a party has to file suit from the date of an occurrence.
In Indiana, oral contracts, written contracts for payment of money and promissory notes have a limitation period of 6 years, while written contracts unrelated to the payment of money have a written limitation period of 10 years from the date the debt was incurred.
The statute of limitation in Indiana may begin to run anew by written acknowledgement, a promise to pay or a voluntary payment of the debt by the debtor.
A debt collector may extend the time in which it can collect a debt from a consumer by obtaining a judgment. The statute of limitations in Indiana for a judgment is 10 years unless renewed by the collector. That means once a creditor has a judgment against a consumer, that judgment is collectible for up to 10 years. The creditor can go to the court at the ten year mark and request to renew the judgment, and have it open for an additional 10 years.
If a family member dies after filing a bankruptcy here is the rule that applies:
Rule 1016. Death or Incompetency of Debtor
Primary tabs
Death or incompetency of the debtor shall not abate a liquidation case under chapter 7 of the Code. In such event the estate shall be administered and the case concluded in the same manner, so far as possible, as though the death or incompetency had not occurred. If a reorganization, family farmer's debt adjustment, or individual's debt adjustment case is pending under chapter 11, chapter 12, or chapter 13, the case may be dismissed; or if further administration is possible and in the best interest of the parties, the case may proceed and be concluded in the same manner, so far as possible, as though the death or incompetency had not occurred.
