If you were sued before filing bankruptcy, you may receive a “Stipulation for Dismissal” or similar document from the creditor that sued you at some point after filing your Chapter 7 case.
It’s basically an “agreement” letting the judge know that the court can dismiss (end/close) the case pending against you.
The automatic stay protects you whether you sign this document or not. If you don’t sign it, it may take longer for the state court to officially dismiss your case, but they will do so eventually.
