RATE OF BANKRUPTCIES 2020

A Chapter 7 bankruptcy allows the debtor to retain certain exempt property, but the debtor’s remaining property is gathered and sold by a trustee from which creditors will receive payment. It may also be used by businesses which wish to terminate their business. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy enables debtors, through court supervision and protection, to propose and carry out a repayment plan under which creditors are paid, in full or in part, in installments over a three-year period. During that time, debtors are prohibited from starting or continuing collection efforts. The following bankruptcies declared by Calhoun County residents were recorded by U.S. Bankruptcy Court Northern District of Alabama last week:

Chapter 7 • Robert Melvin Kraft and Donna Rae Kraft, Boswell Drive, Oxford • Gregory D. Pruitt and Glammer D. Pruitt, Paul Street, Anniston • Rufus C. Jones and Teresa P. Jones, Lillian Lane, Anniston • William Franklin Foote, May Street, Anniston • Robert L. McCormick and Doris A.
