Dismissal Causes
On the other hand, a dismissal is not the desirable outcome for a debtor. A dismissal happens more frequently in a Chapter 13 than a Chapter 7. A case can be dismissed for many reasons like not being able to afford the Chapter 13 payments because life circumstances have changed (i.e. job loss, etc.). In either type of bankruptcy, not completing required credit counseling and financial management courses could cause a dismissal as well as if the case was improperly filed. A case can also be dismissed for fraudulent reasons, i.e. excessive credit card abuse indicating that the debtor was trying to accumulate massive debt that he never intended to repay or property transfer to a relative just prior to filing.
