Two Bankruptcies

[macungie]

Back in 2008, I filed a for a personal bankruptcy. My first attorney was difficult at best so I cancelled my action with him. Six months later, I filed again with a different counsel and completed it. But now I have two actions on my record and in reality only one was completed. Can I get the first one removed from my credit record?

Was the first listed as "dismissed"?

Yes the first one was listed as  "Dismissed" I would really to have that one removed. Please tell how  or what I do

Here is a good thread to read:

It appears that it will remain on your credit report for 10 years from filing.
