How Many Times Can You File Bankruptcy In Florida?

There is no limit to how many times you can file for bankruptcy. The conditions are subject to federal rules and are based on elapsed time from prior filing dates.

If you file Chapter 7 and receive a discharge, you can’t file for another eight years from the filing date. Technically, if you want to file bankruptcy Chapter 7 every eight years, there’s no limit.

If you want to file a Chapter 13, you can file four years after your Chapter 7 filing date. You could file as many bankruptcies as you needed after that period.

During bankruptcy proceedings, the court reviews the petitioner’s assets to determine the debtor’s ability to repay creditors. The court then may require sale of the debtor’s property to reimburse creditors and/or cover court costs. The degree to which property is liquidated depends on the circumstances of each case.
