Re: Debt

Something doesn't sound right here. The Trustee represents the interests of the unsecured creditors and should not have been advising you at all. If you were represented by an attorney in the bankruptcy, you should consult with that attorney. If not, you should get an attorney who can advise you. A dismissal will not prevent you from bringing another bankruptcy, but this might not be necessary if the court allows the original case to be reopened.
