My husband filed bankruptcy in 2000 and we turned in a vehicle that was in both our names. Apparently the original creditor sold the debt to another company and they sent us both a 1099 C form this year. I never made any agreement with the creditor to repay since we returned the vehicle. I have contacted the attorney for when he filed bankruptcy and he said the violated the law and he wants to sue them on my husbands behalf however I am still stuck with the 1099 form. Is there a statue of limitations for a creditor to file this form?
