If you have been a debtor in two or more bankruptcy cases dismissed within the last year, no automatic stay goes into effect and no stay will go into effect unless and until: 1) you request by motion that the court enter an order extending the stay; 2) the request is filed with the bankruptcy court within 30 days of ...
When it comes to filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy, debts incurred before filing are called pre-petition debts, that debtors are discharged from, whereas debts incurred after a filing are post-petition payments, which debtors still must pay on.
The automatic stay generally remains in place until the discharge is entered. Once that happens, you're no longer responsible for the unsecured debts incurred before your Chapter 7 was filed. The permanent protection from creditors provided by the discharge is much stronger than the automatic stay.
The automatic stay remains in effect until your case is closed. But, of course, it isn't always that simple. For Chapter 7, it's often the case that a stay will last the 3-5 months the court case is open. For Chapter 13, bankruptcy cases could take anywhere from 3-5 years.
Automatic Stay -- Immediately after a bankruptcy case is filed, an injunction (called the "Automatic Stay") is generally imposed against certain creditors who want to start or continue taking action against a debtor or the debtor's property.

Automatic Stay -- Immediately after a bankruptcy case is filed, an injunction (called the "Automatic Stay") is generally imposed against certain creditors who want to start or continue taking action against a debtor or the debtor's property. Bankruptcy Code Section 362 discusses the Automatic Stay.
A borrower's pre-bankruptcy waiver of the automatic stay is more likely to be enforced if contained in a forbearance agreement or an agreement approved by the court in a previous bankruptcy case.
