    Personal property is anything that is not Real Property. Real Property is land and things permanently attached to land. Is that what you're asking?
    Pay no attention to anything I post. I graduated last in my class from a fly-by-night law school that no longer exists; I never studied or went to class; and I only post on internet forums when I'm too drunk to crawl away from the computer.

        Yes, you do need to include it in the bankruptcy. Are you thinking of filing pro se? I ask because if you are, you're not ready yet. Every debt you owe must be listed in the bankruptcy. Your State probably has an exemption specifically for a motor vehicle.

        I highly suggest that if you're filing pro se, that you at least get the NoLo guidebook to filing Chapter 7.
        Chapter 7 (No Asset/Non-Consumer) Filed (Pro Se) 7/08 (converted from Chapter 13 - 2/10)
        Status: (Auto) Discharged and Closed! 5/10

            Yes, it is a form of personal property.

            If the thing is not attached to the ground, or attached to the thing that is attached to the ground, in the broadest sense, it is personal property. A car is most definitely personal property.

            It is odd, most of these questionnaires usually separately ask about vehicles, but oh well.

              Since you are in NJ, you really want to be thinking about using Federal Exemptions, not the state ones.

                  If I understand you correctly, this is not for filing a bankruptcy but a creditor does have a judgment against you. If this is the case, the creditor can seek a Writ of Execution against you and seek to levy on your property. $1,000 is exempt from creditors. However, if you are still paying off the bank for the car loan, the creditor can still levy on your car, but subject to the loan. This means that if the car is worth $3,000 and your car loan is $2,000, the creditor needs to pay of your loan in order to get it. This would probably make it unattractive for a creditor to try to take the car.
