Creditors that I had when I filed bankruptcy have filed judgements against me. How can I have these judgements reversed?
Creditors who have a judgement against you have no special position in bankruptcy. They cannot act against you on the judgement and if they attempt to do so they will have to give you notice. If this happens you should remind the creditor of your bankruptcy. If they refuse to listen and still threaten to take action on their judgements, you should talk to a solicitor so that the court can be made aware of your bankruptcy. The judgements do not get reversed when you file your assignment. They only lose their effect in that your creditors can not take any action against you unless they can prove that your debt to them is affected by Section 178.
