Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Florida

Show Cause of late payments Chapter 13

I am under Chapter 13. They sent me a court day for January to show cause for late payment. I am behind 662.00 and my payments are 432.00 a mo. My income changed since June due to medical problems from my husband. He has liver damage, pancreatis, skin problem, asthma, etc. We applied for Social Security Disability but, it is going to take some time. In the Chapter 13 is included my mortgage and students loans. How can I fix this. At this time I cannot afford an attorney. What do I need to do?

Re: Show Cause of late payments Chapter 13

It really depends on what judge and which bankrutpcy district you are in. In the Middle District of Florida, Tampa or Ft. Myers division you would file a motion to modify your plan payments. You really should at least hire an attorney to draft the paperwork. It should not cost more than $175.00 to $275.00 dollars to do.
