Judicial mortgage modification in chapter 13 bankruptcy is expected to be considered on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives as early as Wednesday of this week. The proposed law eliminates the ban on restructuring primary residential mortgages to help people save their homes from foreclosure. The law change will help people in foreclosure who don’t want to file bankruptcy also, Chip Parker, Jacksonville bankruptcy lawyer, writes in the Bankruptcy Law Network blog.
The bill will be part of a large package of financial services legislation. You can support judicial modification of mortgages in chapter 13 bankruptcy by calling or faxing your Kansas Congressional delegation today. Here is how to contact your member of Congress:
