Estate – when the petition is filed, all of the Debtor’s interests, both legal and equitable constitute the bankruptcy “estate.” If there are non-exempt assets, the creditors are paid from the liquidated proceeds. In a Chapter 13, the estate includes earnings of the Debtor up until the Chapter 13 plan is paid in full. Interests in property acquired after the petition is filed may be property of the estate, depending on the chapter filed and certain other factors.
