What persons should not file under Chapter 7?
A person who is not eligible for a chapter 7 discharge should not file under chapter 7. Also, a person who has substantial debts that are not dischargeable under chapter 7 should not file under chapter 7. In addition, it may not be wise for a person with current income sufficient to repay a substantial portion of his or her debts within a reasonable period to file under chapter 7, because the court may dismiss the case as constituting an abuse of chapter 7. Although it is not a legal requirement, some experts say that a chapter 7 case should not be filed unless a person’s dischargeable debts exceed the value of his or her nonexempt assets by at least two thousand dollars.
