Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California
If a debt of past due homeowner's dues is discharged during bankruptcy, if all payment are not made after the discharge date, is the original balance reinstated?
2 Answer from Attorneys
No, however, if the HOA has asserted a lien against the home, then the lien remains in place after the bankruptcy discharges the pre-petition dues. Only your personal liability for the dues is discharged, not the lien.
