It might. If the unlawful detainer arises from a tenant holding over, it should be relatively easy to oust the debtor.

No (it is no longer automatic). If you believe you have a good faith defense to the eviction, you must request a hearing and pay a sum certain into the registry of the bankruptcy court.

Only briefly, unless you're willing to pay all the back rent.

Once a judgment has been rendered in an eviction case, you would have to deposit with the bankruptcy court any rent due within 30 days, and certify that you will cure the default within 30 days, or else you would not be protected from eviction.
