Car Accident Judgments, Drivers License Suspension and Bankruptcy
I got a judgment against me for causing a car accident, and I didn't have insurance. My driver's license is being suspended over the judgment. If I file bankruptcy can I get my license back? This is in Florida.
Re: Car Accident Judgments, Drivers License Suspension and Bankruptcy
Under Florida law, at least as of a few years ago, a bankruptcy filing will not affect the suspension. However, if there is any chance of settling the debt with the plaintiff, the possibility of bankruptcy may inspire the plaintiff to accept a settlement. I suggest discussing your case in detail with a bankruptcy lawyer.
