Re: rossendales

Did you already have a Liability Order for your Council Tax?

So was the whole of the Council Tax taken into the bankruptcy?

Re: rossendales

hi not sure if you got my reply computer went funny but i had no liability order and yes the whole of the council tax was taken into bankruptcy the first i knew about this was a letter from rossendales a year after going bankrupt (strange eh) but the letters are going to my mum's address i don't live there i did send a text to the bailiff giving my bankruptcy number and who to contact ie the officer in charge not sure if i should have done tho

Re: rossendales

If you had arrears at the time of your bankruptcy, but the council had not yet obtained a Liability Order, then only the arrears at the time of your bankruptcy will be taken into account.

The whole amount of council tax for the year only becomes due when you have defaulted on the installments and the council have gained a Liability Order for the full amount due.

So I am unsure as to how the whole of your council tax was included in your bankruptcy order.
