Bankruptcy Information

Conversion from Chapter 7 to Chapter 13 ... and Vice Versa
 
There are two basic types of bankruptcy for an individual debtor or a consumer. The law for each type comes from "Chapters" in the federal Bankruptcy Code, which is the law that debtors and bankruptcy courts must follow.
 
Chapter 11 Conversion or Dismissal
 
The Bankruptcy Code contemplates voluntary conversion by the debtor and discretionary conversion or dismissal by the court. In addition to those two forms of relief, a court may also dismiss a chapter 11 case for lack of good faith or may dismiss or suspend the case pursuant to provisions in the Bankruptcy Code.
