What does it mean if you receive a Motion to Dismiss your Chapter 13 case from the Chapter 13 trustee?

First, understand that a motion to dismiss is not the same thing as an order from the judge actually dismissing your case. The trustee has filed a motion to dismiss because (a) there is a delinquency in your payments; and/or (b) your plan is running longer than 60 months.

As discussed in this video, you and your lawyer will have an opportunity to resolve the trustee’s motion and keep your case alive. Chapter 13 bankruptcy is all about second chances and motions to dismiss are no different.

In this video I discuss how we go about fixing whatever problem the trustee has identified and entering into a consent order that allows for the denial of the trustee’s motion.
