More specifically, My rent is $625 per month and I informed my landlord that I needed to short my February rent payment $250 in order to pay the legal fees for my Chpt. 7 Bankruptcy. I told them I would pay back the money $75 per month including a late fee and they said "NO!!!" They told me they would evict me if I shorted the rent. I am disabled and only receive a little over $900 per month from Social Security and I barely scrape by each month as it is, but with the Bankruptcy, I could afford the extra $75 per month to pay the rent back. Can they legally evict me if I go through with it? If they can, Is there a way to add my rent payment to the Bankruptcy? Please help me!!! If anyone knows about this, please please please help me!!! I live in NJ if that helps with any laws pertaining to it. Thank you!
