    Post: Bankruptcy and inheritance from an aunt

    Posted by Rebel4u on 10/31/07


    I had just started the process of getting papers together
    and my aunt dies in another state. I refused any interest
    in the will and ask the attorney in that state to look into
    it and do what ever he could do legaly to make sure I was
    not intilte to any of the inheritance. While this was being
    look in to I proceeded with the bankruptcy in another
    state. Based on the information I received from the
    attorney for my aunt estate there would be nothing that
    could be done. According to him it would have tobe included
    in the papers for the bankruptcy. A few weeks before going
    in front of the trustee I supplied all the info to include
    it in the bk (addemdum to the filing). I was informed at
    that time only 40% of the money would be need to satisfy
    the completion of my filing. after the meeting with the
    trustee and all papers were signed (including the addemdum)
    I received the check from the estate. I took to the
    attorneys office and repleatly asked them to take the check
    until this was settled. Do to bk I needed to replace my
    car, asked again if I should do this (buy a car)with some
    of the money. I ask when should I pay the money owed (this
    went on for 2-3 months. Trustee did finaly notified me and
    the attorneys office made a bunch of mistakes as noted by
    the trustee. The trustee demanded all the money and show
    cause for why this was not to be so. My attorny requested
    more money to repair the mistake that they made on my
    papers and to respond to there mistake. So I paid them and
    30 days has gone by since I paid the additional money and
    they have not done a thing. When I called in it was told to
    me to make appointment with them for 2 weeks so they could
    look into this and see if they can do anything at all. I
    need help I have no money and I don't think this is right.
