Atlanta, GA asked in Bankruptcy for Alabama

Q: How soon after u take your 1st credit course can u file bankruptcy in Alabama?

I recently was pulled over and issued a ticket for driving with a suspended license.i didn't receive any statements from dmv prior to this.i called asking for what reason and they said due to an at fault accident a year prior .I didn't fill out a specific document nor worked out any arrangements for payments.

So now I have 3 weeks before I go before the judge and from what I'm told I have to have my license back by then or go to jail along with more fines.i have since lost my job due to this and have a family to support what am I supposed to do?I'm afraid if I file bankruptcy even right away that it won't go into affect right away as I haven't even taken my credit course yet.sorry for the long message.im just at a loss right now.any help is appreciated
