If so it will only be for a short time. Talk to a very good chapter 13 bankruptcy attorney.

If (1) the plan provides for the payment of back rent, and (2) the landlord is willing to keep you on a month-to-month basis, it does.

Filing a Chapter 13 will temporarily stop an eviction.

The landlord can file a motion for relief from the automatic stay, get a court order, then file an eviction suit in state court.
