Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Kentucky

Re: bankruptcy

No, a person can only file once every eight years.

Re: bankruptcy

The law has changed since they filed. If they filed and received a discharge in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy five years ago, then they are not now eligible to file another Chapter 7 and receive a discharge -- the wait is now eight years.

They could, however, file a Chapter 13 bankruptcy if they have enough income to fund a confirmable plan and are otherwise eligible (debt limits and so forth).

Consult with a consumer bankruptcy expert for a more detailed response. Try the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys -- www.nacba.org.
