What Is the Automatic Stay?

When you file for bankruptcy, an automatic stay will be issued. The automatic stay is a court order that immediately halts any foreclosure proceedings, evictions, repossessions, and most collection efforts. It also immediately halts any lawsuits that have been filed against you.

Once the automatic stay is issued, you will have immediate protection from creditors and debt collectors. This means that you will have time to reorganize your finances and come up with a plan to pay back your creditors.

An automatic stay will last until the bankruptcy court issues a discharge order. This discharge order will release you from any remaining debts after your bankruptcy case is over.
