Can I file Chapter 7 for an S corporation that has no assets and no money, but owes 2004 (California) minimum tax of $800 plus penalties?

Hello Kelli,

I'm not a bankruptcy attorney.

It seems to me it would cost less to pay the tax and terminate the corporation before the end of this year to stop the expense.

Good luck!
