Fresno Bankruptcy Filings Continue Downward Trend

Fresno bankruptcy filings continue to plummet. For the 12 months ending May 31, 2014, filings were down 18.8% from a year ago. That continues a downward trend that has seen Fresno bankruptcy filings go from a high of 15,208 filings for the 12 months ending May 31, 2011 to less than half that number (7,132) for the 12 months ending May 31, 2014. While the numbers do continue to plummet, they are not plummeting quite as much as they did last year when filings were down 30.8%.
