Bankruptcies are on the rise during the national recession. NC ranked 10th in the percentage increase in the US between 1989 and 1990. A typical day in the US Bankruptcy Court in Raleigh sees approximately 100 cases a day. Paul and Kathy Oakley, victims of bankruptcy, and John Orcutt, a Raleigh bankruptcy attorney, are interviewed about their experiences with bankruptcy.
