If the price of the sale of your property other than your furniture necessary for everyday life and your personal goods essential to the exercise of your professional activity, which can not be liquidated, is insufficient, the Judge pronounces the closing of the proceedings for lack of assets, which erases all your debts unprofessional.
I am told that if I ask the benefit of personal recovery proceedings, it sell all my possessions. But I need my car to get to my work. How?

This question is answered in the texts. The fees payable to the agent are paid in priority to the sale price of your property and if this sum is not enough, the balance is paid by the state under court costs. However, depending on your resources, the judge may decide to make a contribution your responsibility.
Entering 7 months ago, the Insolvency Commission has not yet established a plan. I wonder what action will be given to my file?

During the period between 6 and 9 months, the interest on your loans will be calculated on the basis of interest legal.
