Emergency Motion To Impose The Automatic Stay {13-13}

Form No. 13-13 - EMERGENCY MOTION TO IMPOSE THE AUTOMATIC STAY. This form is used to request an emergency order from the Bankruptcy Court to impose the automatic stay under 11 U.S.C. § 362(c)(4). The automatic stay is a legal provision that halts most collection actions against the debtor as soon as they file for bankruptcy. In this case, the debtor has previously filed for bankruptcy, but their case was dismissed. Since the new case is filed within one year of a prior dismissal, the debtor needs to request the court to re-impose the automatic stay to prevent creditors from taking further action. The motion provides details of the debtor's prior bankruptcy cases, financial status, and any changes in circumstances since the dismissal of the previous case. The court considers whether emergency relief is warranted and the debtor must provide details to support the request. If emergency relief is granted, creditors are notified and must respond within a shorter timeframe. www.FormsWorkflow.com
