• There will be fewer “automatic stay” (a legal phrase meaning potential legal actions against debtors are halted) protections for bankruptcy filers under the new law. For example, filings for bankruptcy will no longer delay or stop eviction actions, driver’s license suspensions, legal actions for child support, or divorce proceedings.
