United States Bankruptcy Courts:
Federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction over bankruptcy cases. Bankruptcy cases cannot be filed in state court. Each of the 94 federal judicial districts handles bankruptcy matters.
The primary purposes of the law of bankruptcies are:
To give an honest debtor a "fresh start" in life by relieving the debtor of most debts, and
To repay creditors in an orderly manner to the extent that the debtor has property available for payment.
