Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California

1 Answer from Attorneys
Objection! Vague and ambiguous. But here are some likely relevant issues:
One doesn't file bankruptcy "on" something. A bankruptcy-filing incorporates and addresses all liabilities and their dischargeability. If you're in foreclosure, then ultimately your home can be sold and you will no longer own the property. One of the issues to keep in mind is that even if your property gets sold thruogh foreclosure, you're liable for HOA fees that are incurred post-petition or after the bankruptcy filing date.
