According to Bankruptcy Law Firms, the credit union can file an objection to recover some of its money if it believes that the debtor acted fraudulently in obtaining credit.
- If you have debt with a credit union and you are going to file, or have filed, for bankruptcy, you will lose your membership in that credit union, explains the Bankruptcy Law Network. Your attorney may recommend that you withdraw your money and place it in a bank where you don’t owe money.
