How long has it been since it was dismissed? It is possible to ask for reinstatement, but filing a new one might be easier.

It depends on how long you were not paying. You will probably need to refile.

Depending upon how long it has been since dismissal you may be able to reinstate. You'd have to file a motion and have the cashier's check ready to tender.

Yes. But, please understand that bankruptcy is a very complicated process. It is wise to talk to an experienced bankruptcy attorney before deciding to take this important step. Most Arizona bankruptcy attorneys offer a free consultation about the basics of bankruptcy.

Is this a Chapter 7 where you were supposed to be paying your filing fees in installments or a Chapter 13.

You can re-petition if you follow the plan. Otherwise, consider a Chapter 7. Contact an attorney to evaluate options.

Speak with your bankruptcy attorney about this question. You might even be able to convert it to a chapter 7, if you qualify.

If your bankruptcy case has already been dismissed, you will probably need to file a new bankruptcy case as opposed to moving to reopen your old bankruptcy case.

Question: If bankruptcy case is dismissed for none payment can you be reinstated? Question Detail: I received bankruptcy-dismissed paper due to not following payment plan but I lost my job and trying to find out can it be reinstated now that I have a job. *- yes, depending on how long ago it was dismissed; if its been over 1 year,then most likely no ........ the real question is whether you can get the payments caught up NOW ...... if not, you may just have an easier time filing a brand new Chapter 13 case. *
