The required list of documents must be submitted to the clerk's office when filing for bankruptcy under Chapter 13. A filing fee of $313.00 must be paid by cash, money order or cashier's check at the time of filing. If you are unable to pay the filing fee you may file an Application to Pay Filing Fees in Installments.
Filing for bankruptcy is a serious matter and it is strongly recommended that anyone considering filing bankruptcy seek legal advice and representation from a bankruptcy attorney experienced in bankruptcy law and procedure.
