Q: If my husband filed bankruptcy and it was dismissed without prejudice and we file jointly now, will the automatic stay

Only apply to me? Will I get the full stay? Or if it doesn't can I file alone and get it?

answered on Jan 8, 2023

Your bankruptcy lawyer can answer that more accurately than someone on a Q&A site like this. The re-filer needs to ask to have the stay reimposed, but the new filer doesn't. How the court handles it will to a large extent depend on the district you are in and who is your judge.

of Course, you can!

Your DMV can sell you a new duplicate title for a matter of bucks, but having the title is not a necessity to filing a bankruptcy, but a good lawyer is.
