Lack of ssn and dob will not affect the eviction. Bankruptcy of one tenant will likely stay eviction of other tenants in the same house.

A major chemical company had an explosion that damaged my home. We agreed on a settlement and I was paid approximately half. Upon completion of repairs they sent me the last payment of over $5000. They then filed bankruptcy and the check bounced. What are my options to collect?

Prosecute them for TBD bad checks. Criminal prosecutions are not stayed by the bankruptcy code. Do not take any civil action against them, only criminal.

If you have filed tax returns in prior years, for those unpaid income taxes, then yes, a bankruptcy can help you. Unpaid income taxes, for returns filed more than two years and four months prior to the date of bankruptcy, are dischargeable, along with the interest and penalties accruing.... Read more »

You can --through a lawyer--seek a temporary restraining order in District Court in your county. It is temporary--and I mean temporary. Don't expect more that 30 days till something will have to happen.

Your lease may be avoidable in a bankruptcy proceeding, but I would consult a business bankruptcy specialist to see what all the options are

One would have to see the actual settlement to properly answer this question, but I would advise against any disclosure. Many times there are severe consequences for breaches of confidentiality. I think the safest course of action is to remain silent and disclose nothing.

You need to consult your divorce attorney and move to hold him in contempt in the divorce case. He will likely have to hold you harmless on the debt regardless.
