I am filing bankruptcy on June 1, 2008 and am expected to receive my rebate stimulus check in July. Can the bankruptcy courts take my check to pay my creditors?

    I believe they can.

    they can’t take your check but they can put a lien on your checking account. If you have direct deposit say bye to your stimulus. Cash it at a different bank or currency exchange…

    Okay I don’t beleive they will take your money, I filed Bankruptcy years ago and they never took my tax money, but things have changed better contact your lawyer on this one

    Yes, they can. I am surprised your trustee has not told you to bring it directly to him as soon as you get it.
