Can Co-Signers Be Protected
If you file Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the creditor can proceed against your co-signers, according to the terms of the debt agreement. However, if you file a Chapter 13 debt adjustment, a co-signer is protected if the following conditions are met. The debt must be a consumer debt. Also, the debt may not be incurred in the ordinary course of business, and the co-signer cannot benefit from the proceeds of the debt.

Bankruptcy Terms

Today's Terms

Chapter Eleven

Definition:
Reorganization proceedings, generally for business entities; the debtor maintains control of the business in Chapter 11 (unless the Court appoints a trustee).

Foreclosure

Definition:
Your mortgage lender may start a foreclosure action and sell your home at a Sheriff's sale. If the sale nets less than you owe, there will be a "deficiency balance" that you will own to the lender.

Small claims

Definition:
Also sometimes called convenience claims - under a plan of reorganization or liquidation, claims that are small (e.g. in the hundreds or thousands of dollars range) and numerous are often grouped into a single class and settled for cash for administrative convenience.
