Does your Huntington Park case fit a simple Chapter 7?
Huntington Park's median household income of $59,996 is below California's median for a two-person household ($102,797), so many local filers clear the first step of the means test. About 76% of Huntington Park homes are rented, and renters with little property usually fit the simplest kind of case.
- Your income passes the means test. See the California median income figures.
- Your property fits within California's exemptions. Most renters and people with modest cars do.
- You do not own a business with its own assets or debts.
- You have not moved money or property to family in the last two years.
- You have not had a Chapter 7 discharge in the last eight years.
Simple Chapter 7 cases in Huntington Park
Huntington Park's rent stabilization law caps most yearly rent increases at 3% or the rate of inflation, whichever is lower. That helps renters plan a budget after Chapter 7. Most Huntington Park renters with wages, an ordinary car and household goods fit the simple case. A case gets more complex if you own a home, now valued at about $669,000 on the Zillow index, or if you have a business on Pacific Boulevard. Recent large payments to family or a pending injury claim also need a closer look.
What can make a Chapter 7 cost more
Some cases take more work. Equity above the exemptions, a business, a creditor lawsuit inside the bankruptcy, recent transfers or a prior case can all add time and cost. If your case needs more, we tell you before you sign, not after.
Lowering the $338 court fee
The court fee is the same for every Chapter 7 filer in the country. You can pay it in up to four installments within 120 days, or ask the court to waive it if your household income is under 150% of the federal poverty guideline. Cases from Huntington Park are filed with the Los Angeles Division at 255 East Temple Street.
