Under Chapter 13, you must file a plan with the court showing how you will pay off your debts over a period of three to five years.

Among them was the longest-held captive, Sergeant Major Jose Libio Martinez, who was seized by the rebels almost 14 years ago. A fifth hostage ran into the woods and was rescued by soldiers. Human Rights Watch said in a statement Monday the killings constitute a war crime, and show the guerrilla group's "blatant disregard for human life." A funeral for the four men was held Tuesday at the national cathedral in the capital, Bogota.
