2nd Time Bankrupt?

If you perform all of your ditiues properly and no one opposes your dsicharge then you will be treated as a “first time bankrpotcy filer”. If you end up in Court for some reason, the Court may treat you as a second time filer due to your previous proposal.

So, if you decide to file, do everything properly so you don’t end up in Court…
