Do I have to live in Orlando to file bankruptcy in the Middle District – Orlando Division?
No. The Orlando Division of the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida accepts bankruptcy filings from individuals who reside or are domiciled in one of several central Florida counties including Orange County and Lake County, as well as certain other counties in the jurisdiction of the Middle District court. Any Florida resident can file bankruptcy in Florida but it depends on where you live as to which division of which United States District Court where you will need to file your Bankruptcy Petition and how long you have lived in Florida as to which exemptions of property you may be entitled to claim.
