Is There an Automatic Stay Protection for a Co-Debtor Under Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
Two people filing jointly for Chapter 7 bankruptcy are entitled to equal protection under federal bankruptcy laws — including the automatic stay. Married couples and individuals are eligible for Chapter 7; unmarried individuals cannot file jointly. The automatic stay is a major reason why some couples file for bankruptcy. The stay is a legal injunction signed by a judge and is granted to everyone filing for bankruptcy. The stay immediately halts lawsuits and all debt collection, including bank and wage garnishment.

Repossession numbers could increase
Over the past year or so repossession numbers have been declining, which has come as good news for homeowners and for the property industry as a whole. However, according to recent reports repossession numbers are on the rise again after it was revealed that 9,100 properties had been taken back by lenders in the three months leading to the end of March.
Between the last quarter of 2009 and the first quarter of this year repossession numbers had been falling each quarter according to figures, but the first quarter of this year saw an increase of 15 percent in repossession numbers. The Council of Mortgage Lenders has predicted that repossession numbers will continue to rise this year, adding that the figure could go as high as 40,000 repossessions or more over the course of the year.
The low base interest rate is, at present, helping some families to cope with repayments on their mortgages, as it has resulted in their repayments being lower.
