A: First - we need to know what type of bankruptcy, i.e. Chapter 7 or 13. Also need to know if this is a lease or something different. I would suggest speaking with your bankruptcy attorney as well as there may be other issues and a person more informed and familiar with your personal circumstances would be better able to answer a question other than random people in a web forum, especially with something this important. Best wishes.
