Due to extreme expenses in Oct and after struggling for 3 years we are sinking fast. Can we file now? How will court look at the fact I had to do this before?

Re: Having to file bankruptcy a second time.

The code states you cannot file for six years after filing of a chapter 7 bankruptcy so you are well within the time limits. Your prior bankruptcy should have no effect on this one.
