One of the vehicles is paid off the other is not as it is my wifes.

Depends on the value of these vehicles and the equity therein.
The mortgage company didn't give them my address and all notices got returned to the courts.
answered on Feb 2, 2019
I’m not sure what you’re asking bc if you filed the petition, it was incumbent upon you to provide your correct address in the petition. You should not rely on a creditor to provide anything on your behalf.
We were both in the hospital this year and my husband was off work 6 weeks without pay and we got so far behind on all our bills plus the hospital bills for both of us

I'm going to guess that you did not actually file chapter 11 (it is generally for businesses, and although individuals CAN file chapter 11, it is much more expensive and only necessary if you have a lot of assets). So, it depends on whether you file a chapter 7 or 13. The maximum time to wait... View More

Only in the very short term. They can seek relief from the stay and proved with the eviction.
My name is on the deed to my house but not the mortgage so just making sure who to list as the creditor since none if it is on my credit report.
My name is on the deed but not the mortgage I know I have to list it as a asset and also send notice to who name is on the mortgage just wasn't sure if I listed it under my debts since name is not on the mortgage.
Mine and my mother and father in law name is on deed but only there name is on mortgage it is on less then 1 acre and less then amount shown for homestead and I have lived there longer then 3 years and 4 months. The payment comes out of my account for the mortgage to the bank as well.

It appears you do qualify for the homestead exemption under the facts you have set out above
The Oklahoma homestead exemption amount is unlimited – you can exempt the full value of your home. However, there are limitations as to the acreage of your property. You can only exempt up to 1 acre if you live in a city, town or village. You can only exempt up to 160 acres if you live elsewhere.

Theoretically yes. You should consult a local attorney to advise on the other aspects of filing bankruptcy, however.
Thinking about bankruptcy and looking at paper work was just curious of how they go off house when listed as assets/worth.
answered on Jun 13, 2018
List the asset, the fair market value of the asset and the smount owed, if any. Complete info for each asset.
answered on May 14, 2018
Yes. Under notices. You will need to give notice to the person whose name the mortgage is in.
I'm thinking about filing chapter 7 but not sure how this will effect house or how it is listed in bankruptcy since my name is on the deed but not the mortgage.
answered on May 14, 2018
If your name is on the deed, you must list it as an asset of the estate. The degree to which the house is affected will depend on the equity in the house and whether you should file a 7, 13, or at all.
It was my bankruptcy lawyers advice not to reaffirm on my vehicle and to continue to make monthly payments until a clear title was sent by the company who has the lien on the vehicle. It has been 3 months over a year now and I have not heard anything about a need for reaffirmation or received a... View More

Contact him about the situation snd be patient. Many times it is best not to reaffirm in a particular situation. As long as you continue paying for the car, they will not repo it. Sounds like his strategy may be to get you a clear title to the vehicle, but check in with him and talk it out.
How do i find out if the case was dismissed?
answered on Feb 8, 2018
You could contact your attorney or you could look on Pacer which can be found at www.pacer.gov Good luck
Debt was not reaffirmed and was dismissed in court. I called bank about reaffirming and was told no. The title I have does not have lien but state of okla shows a lien. I have an Indiana title given to me dealers floor plan company as he was out of business. Never received Oklahoma title.
answered on Feb 6, 2018
1. You can call the creditor and ask them to come get the car.
2. If they refuse you can make them an offer to pay a lump sum of money in exchange for a lien release.
3. If all the above fails you may attempt a quit title lawsuit against the lien holder and seek a Court Order... View More

Suit by Met Life to reclaim life insurance paid to me in error. I was not at fault in any way but cannot repay. It was in 2014. Can I get advice?
answered on Nov 30, 2017
Sorry I didn't see this sooner. YES, you should hire an attorney, if you haven't already. Representing yourself in Federal Court is much more difficult than in state courts, as I am sure you have learned by now.

It is in regards to a Contempt Trial where both have filed them on each other over Child support, property division and visitation.
Also, I am not asking if it can be 100% discharged but can it (attorney fees reimbursement) be added to the Ch 13 payment plan at a reduced monthly amount?... View More
answered on Nov 8, 2017
In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy creditors are paid based on their priority status. Child Support is a priority debt that is not dischargeable. Property division is an unsecured debt and can be discharged. In a Chapter 13 plan unsecured creditors receive a pro rate share of the amount the debtor is... View More
