Legal Answers
- Q. Can Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Michigan take my car valued at $2,000?
- A: No. You can exempt over $10,000 worth of anything. I always tell my clients let’s pretend you have $12,000 laying on your dining room table. You then list things that you own. And then you can use that $10,000 to buy things off the table. You can also exempt money in the bank by using the money that you have on the table.
- Q. Can they garnish my federal refund for an 8-year-old car repossession?
- A: No to Federal Refund. There is also no reason to file MI state taxes if you are going to get a refund. They is no penalty unless you owe and file late.
- Q. How can I stop my tax refund garnishment from a car repossession?
- A: First thing. I assume these are Michigan refunds. If so stop filing. The state doesn’t care if you file when you expect a refund.
Why are you reluctant to file bankruptcy?
