An Order for Relief acts as an injunction to stop creditors from collecting on outstanding debts for the duration of the bankruptcy case (often 3-4 months) . As soon as a case is filed with the Bankruptcy Court in Boston, all creditors are notified by mail and this notice acts as an injunction. If during the 3-4 months bankruptcy process creditors attempt to collect against the debtor, they will be fined.
