Assumption of lease or contract: the Debtor has the option of rejecting or assuming a lease or contract in both Chapter 13 and Chapter 7 bankruptcy. If the Debtor chooses to assume a lease or contract, this means he continues to pay and receive the benefits just as he did before he filed bankruptcy.
