Trustee requesting payment

Posted on: 12th Mar, 2012 01:39 am
My bankruptcy was discharged on December 15th 2011. Today I received a letter from the Trustee requesting that I pay 14,500 because I had too much value in personal property. What do I do? I don’t have the money to pay this debt.
Hi Jammy,

I will suggest to not mess up with your Trustee. You've been discharged and that bill is due and thus you're liable for paying the bill. You should check out whether or not you can make payment arrangements in order to pay off the bill. You can also contact your bankruptcy attorney and he might help you in dealing with this matter.

Thanks,

Jerry

You cannot actually be arrested for debt. Being in debt and owing money in general is a civil issue, not a criminal issue. Technically you did not steal the money, you and the credit card company have an agreement that you will borrow the money and pay it back when you can. If you don't pay it back, the credit card companies can sue you, and since the state usually upholds contracts, courts and subpoena you to appear in court. If you don't appear in court when requested, that's when they can put an arrest warrant out for you. But you would be arrested for failure to appear in court, not credit card debt.
