I haven't practiced bankruptcy for over 10 years, but my strong suspicion
is that if you proceed you will be looking at an order to show cause for
contempt from the bankruptcy court. Maybe someone who has practiced more
recently can chime in, but in general if you're in doubt you should seek
relief from stay.
