Hi Everyone.
Ok, I have a BIG mess. My case was dismissed last week for apparently not filing a summary of schedules. I filed them yesterday and the clerk didn't know what to do about a motion to vacate the dismissal so she referred me to my case manager who wasn't there. I went home to get ready for work and went back outside 20 min later to find the police had towed my car for expired registration and parking fines. I know I paid those parking fines so I have to find out why they are attached to my car and also for $200 when they were only $35 tickets. That plus impound fees will cost me at least $600 to get my car back. I just don't have it. I have $400 to my name, $150 is due for my final installment of the bk fees. I get paid on Friday but that still won't be enough to cover my rent which is already late, electric bill that I got a disconnect notice on yesterday AND the impound fees.
I'm going to take the bus to the courthouse again today to file the motion to vacate but is there anything I can do about the car with the bk? Does the automatic stay affect that?
And on a final note that really ticks me off. Parked right in front of my car (it's street parking here) is a car that has been abandoned since November. Windows are broken, the side totally smashed in, mirrors broken, etc. It had a pile of tickets sitting on top of it, several neighbors have called the police about it. The officer left that car and took mine. The tow truck driver told me he asked the officer about it and the officer told him to leave it, that it hadn't been there 72 hours! When I called dispatch to ask where my car was taken to I also mentioned the abandoned one - the same officer came back and took the tickets off of it and left it again! Then he towed my next door neighbor's truck for being in the same spot for 72 hours. He's in the navy and was on a two week deployment. There are military ID tags on his truck. Grrrr.
