Q&A: I have taken out bankruptcy on a debt. The creditor is trying to sue me now?
Question by To Breathe, To Feel, To Know Im Alive: I have taken out bankruptcy on a debt. The creditor is trying to sue me now?
1 year ago I took out chapter 7 bankruptcy. The creditor never contested the debt and it was settled in the chapter 7. Now he is trying to get my mom to pay him and sent her a letter in the mail saying he would sue in 10 days if the debt is not paid. Can he do this?
If my mom does pay is that a violation of federal law and could my bankruptcy case be opened back up in federal court?

This is a scumbag tactic. He is preying on her emotions.
What do you think? Answer below!
If it’s your debt you are safe. There is nothing he can do with your mother.
No send him a copy of your discharge and warn him not to contact you or your mother. Unless her name was on the loan/credit card or whatever, he has no right to call her.
He’s trying, but he isn’t entitled to a dime. BTW, why haven’t you called him and told him to get off your mom’s back and then stick that “debt” up his a**?
