Must be Chapter 11 or 13? Couldn't do that with Chapter 7, I think.

You know a couple years ago the banks and their lobbyists got the bankruptcy laws changed to make it much more difficult to declare bankruptcy, or so they thought. They didn't expect this, I bet. "Last month, as the nation's housing slump continued, consumer bankruptcy filings increased almost 23% from a year earlier -- representing nearly 69,000 people -- according to the American Bankruptcy Institute, a nonprofit research group whose members include bankruptcy attorneys, judges and lenders. Overall, consumer bankruptcy filings were up 44.76% during the first nine months of this year."
