The Bankruptcy Act of 2005 changed the terms of filing for bankruptcy in each of the states. For Colorado residents, bankruptcy can be petitioned in a district court in one of three court locations. The types of bankruptcy include Chapter 7, Chapter 11, Chapter 12 and Chapter 13.
For a petitioner to be cleared of unsecured debt and keep the assets allowed by the exemptions in their state, Chapter 7 may be the right choice. However, not everyone can file for Chapter 7, and not all debt is forgiven. Any non-dischargeable debts, such as student loans, back taxes and child support will remain the financial responsibility of the petitioner.
A means test determines the type of bankruptcy a debtor may file for. If the person's income or combined household income, is below the median for Colorado wage earners then they may be eligible for Chapter 7. If their income is above the median, Chapter 13 is the alternative option for these petitioners.
Chapter 13 is a restructuring and minimizing of debt owed to creditors and typically is paid off within 3 to 5 years. The individual or couple filing for Chapter 13 will be able to retain their assets as long as payments are made according the court appointed schedule. With Chapter 7, the petitioner's assets are seized and liquidized by a trustee of the court to repay the debt owed.
Chapter 11 is similar to Chapter 13; however, the petitioner in this case is a business instead of an individual. Chapter 11 bankruptcy allows a business to restructure their debts and secure a payment plan for a 3 to 5 year period of time while remaining open. Specific bankruptcy laws are found in Chapter 12 for family farmers or fishermen who require bankruptcy relief.
The cost for filing Chapter 7 is $306 and can be waived in some cases. Individuals or married couples are charged $281 for Chapter 13 bankruptcy and this cannot be waived; however, payments in installments can be arranged.
Official bankruptcy forms for the U.S. Bankruptcy Courts are available at http://www.uscourts.gov/forms/bankruptcy-forms or RecordsFinder.com Court Forms Section.
Colorado is unique because all of the counties of jurisdiction are served in any of the 3 District Courts of the state. Court hearings and filings may be held in Denver, Grand Junction, and Pueblo locations.
