  BANKRUPTCY

  We provide Chapter 7/13 Bankruptcy counseling and filing. We also provide foreclosure assistance, stop wage garnishments and put an end to harassing collection calls. Individuals and businesses use bankruptcy as a way to obtain relief from debts owed to creditors. The United States Constitution authorizes Congress to pass uniform laws on bankruptcy. Laws governing bankruptcy have existed since the early 1800s. The Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code), enacted in 1978, has been amended several times, most recently with the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005. While there is no constitutional right to relief from debts, relief granted by the bankruptcy courts is available to the extent Congress provides. The Bankruptcy Code provides for relief from debts either through liquidation (Chapter 7) or reorganization (Chapters 11, 12, or 13). This pamphlet discusses some of the issues to consider before filing for bankruptcy and the differences between a liquidation and a reorganization case. Before deciding whether to seek bankruptcy protection, one should consult a qualified bankruptcy lawyer.

  DUI, DWI, OMVI AND OVI

  The acronyms DUI, DWI, OMVI and OVI all refer to the same thing: operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The most commonly used terms are DUI, an acronym for Driving Under the Influence, and DWI, an acronym for Driving While Impaired. However, Ohio law no longer uses the DUI and DWI acronyms because, in 1982, Ohio enacted a law that refers to driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs as “OMVI,” an acronym for Operating a Motor Vehicle Impaired. Because a more recent change in Ohio law removed the requirement that a vehicle must be “motorized,” the current acronym that refers to driving under the influence is “OVI” (Operating a Vehicle Impaired). It is now a crime in Ohio to operate almost any vehicle while impaired. This includes not only motorized “vehicles,” but also, bicycles, horse-drawn carriages and several other types of “vehicles.”
