Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California

You'll need to review the facts of the underlying case with an experienced bankruptcy attorney - preferrably one who works with creditor cases. You may have some rights, but it is dependent entirely on the facts of the underlying case, as well as a review of the bankruptcy pleadings the plaintiff filed. Good luck.

Have your personal injury attorney consult a bankruptcy attorney, but in general unless the defendants 1) had auto insurance or 2) were drunk, you could be out of luck. Do not do anything at all to proceed with your claim until you have consulted a bankruptcy attorney.
