Bankruptcy Estate – generally, all of the Debtor’s property or interests or right to property or interests on the date of filing. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, certain property interests, such as an inheritance, lottery winnings, etc., may be part of the estate if acquired within 180 days of the bankruptcy filing. In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, the Debtor’s future disposable income is part of the estate, in addition to windfalls acquired up to the time of discharge. In both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, the Debtor may be able to remove certain property from the estate, such as his home, cars, household goods, etc., using exemptions.
