Her monthly expenses amount to more that $15,000 per month. A judge has agreed to her application and has enacted a plan that would allow her to pay her expenses, as well as her creditors.

While this famous actress may make more money than the average American, anyone may find themselves in a seemingly impossible financial situation. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can allow a person to get a fresh start that is needed, as well as a possible plan to pay off debts in a timely and court-approved manner.
