The general rule is that you cannot incur new debts while you are inside of a St. Louis bankruptcy. Most of the time, this rule applies to a St Louis Chapter 13. But there are some exceptions to this provision.
ONLY $300 UPFRONT ATTORNEY FEES FOR A ST LOUIS CHAPTER 13 BANKRUPTCY
A Missouri Chapter 13 is described as a repayment plan over the course of three (3) to five (5) years. During this period of time, certain debts are paid back. These debts would include things like mortgage arrearage, car notes, back child support, tax debt, and sometimes a portion of your unsecured debts (like credit cards and medical bills). But as you can see, the idea is to get you caught up on your debts (and not to take out new ones).
