"Colorado Convert Chapter 13"
In the past, many debtors in Colorado bankruptcy filed Chapter 13 when past due on home their mortgages. In a chapter
7 case, payments must be brought current to retain possession. In a Chapter 13 case, once mortgage payments are
brought current through trustee payments (based upon priority assigned to particular debts), many debtors sought
conversion to discharge all remaining debts through Chapter 7.
| 11 U.S.C. §348(f)(2): "If the debtor converts a case under chapter 13 of this title to a case under
another chapter under this title in bad faith, the property in the converted case shall consist of the
property of the estate as of the date of conversion" |
NOTE: Spanish language forms and information may be obtained from a various websites, including the United
State Department of Justice, Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, and other US Court sites. Regarding these
forms, the Colorado Bankruptcy Court advises "While we have no reason to believe that these Spanish language
forms or information have been translated inaccurately, only the English language forms are officially
prescribed by the Judicial Conference of the United States Courts. Accordingly, the Court for the District of
Colorado can not guarantee the accuracy or sufficiency of information contained in Spanish language forms or
informational documents." The Colorado Bankruptcy Court also maintains a pro bono program to assist qualified
debtors with adversary proceedings (not available to file petitions to initiate Ch. 7 or 13 cases).
