While inquirers understandably want a specific answer, this question requires more information. Specifically, I, or any advising counsel, would need to review the stipulation.
Having said that, the bankruptcy court usually retains jurisdiction to enforce any such stipulation. If the creditor claims a default and wishes to enforce, he would have to file a motion to reopen the bankruptcy case for the specific purpose of enforcement. That would be filed in NJ and NJ counsel would be required at that time.
If the creditor does not follow the proper procedure, he may seek to sue or enforce where you live in PA.
Coincidentally, I was approached by a long time referring attorney (CL in Lansdale) who has a client with a similar issue. So, that is either an amazing coincidence or I am already aware of the issue and periodically checking on it.
I trust this answers your questions but do not hesitate to reach out to me on a free initial basis.
