Bass & Associates 2 Year Update
My name did not come out on the e-mail when I replied on the groups.yahoo.com
website. So I am sending it again.
The Bass and Associates letter now has an option for the debtor's attorney to
set a time and date to pick up the "collateral"
I am tempted or is the trash still the best option?
My debtor would be willing to pay on the $1700 debt if the financing terms are
the same pre bankruptcy.
I have read the previous list serve advice from 2009 & I am wondering if itstill applies 2 years later.
Thanks,
David Jacob

My advice is to ignore the letter from American General, just as I advise
ignoring the letters from Bass & Associates sent on behalf of Best Buy. In my
years of bankruptcy practice, I have never known of a creditor claiming a
security interest in household goods to seek recovery of the "collateral" after
the bankruptcy discharge. If anyone has experience to the contrary, pleaseshare.
As I explain to clients, the creditor would need to file suit for claim anddelivery, obtain a judgment, obtain a Writ of Possession, and instruct (and pay)
the Sheriff to levy the Writ and obtain possession of the goods. It's just not
going to happen. Automobiles and boats are the exception since they can be more
easily repossessed, and that leads to our oft-repeated discussion on this
list-serve about which creditors are repossessing non-reaffirmed automobiles
post-discharge (the consensus is still only Ford & Chrysler, I believe).
These letters are being sent to try to shake money out of uninformed pro-per
debtors.
