QUESTION
I filed Bankruptcy 7 in 2005.I had commingled / Transmuted funds involved in a property with my fiance
Asked on Mar 10th, 2012 on Bankruptcy - South Carolina
More details to this question:
I did not list these values or potential claims on my BK schedule because I understood that what I was filing had to be a claim of legal or some enforceable claim to ownership.What are the ramifications of this....did I give up all rights to monies that could potentially be mine ?

You are in a murky area. Your claim against the fiance should have been scheduled. Only listed assets that are not administered are abandoned by the trustee upon closing the estate. So, the claims against the fiance are possibly assets of your long closed estate. Have your lawyer determine if it is worth it to re-open the estate, settle with the trustee, and then pursue the claim.
