Re: bankruptcuy
Charging things off is done for tax purposes and does not mean that they cannot come back after you later or assing the debt to a collecion agency. When you file for bankruptcy, you must list all of your debts and a chargeoff is no obstacle to received a discharge of that debt.
Re: bankruptcuy
Yes you can, assuming you meet all other requirements for filing bankruptcy and obtaining a discharge.
