Tenant filed for bankruptcy and Eviction is on Stay

Our tenant is not paying rent (2+ months) and we were going through the eviction process. He filed for bankruptcy right before appearing in the eviction court and the eviction case is on an automatic stay.

The tenant is still living in the apartment and not picking our calls as we tried to work out.

Next Bankruptcy court date is on June 20 and would like to know our options.

Any recommendations for a bankruptcy attorney in Dekalb country/Atlanta. ?.

ask the federal bankruptcy court to lift the stay for your lease.
