TB C asked:


Can you make an amendment to a bankruptcy that is 3 years old? My husband forgot to put a judgment on the bankruptcy, or the lawyer did, I don’t know know. Now his ex wife is coming back to collect it but my husband thought it was included in the bankruptcy. Can we amend the chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Stacey C asked:


I purchased a foreclosure in June 2008. I know the Foreclosure Prevention Act underwent many revisions. Does anyone know if the final version which the President is expected to sign still includes the provision for the $7000 tax credit for the purchase of owner occupied foreclosed homes? I am not a first time homebuyer.

pshao01 asked:

What prevents a company from borrowing a ton of money, spending it all, declaring bankruptcy, and never paying back its creditors?

Details: say the CEO gets a huge “salary” (this is actually borrowed money), buys himself a bunch of toys, then declares bankruptcy and never repays the money. What is the punishment for said CEO?
