If the lender who holds a secured second mortgage on your property filed for Chapter 11 reorganization, you are still obligated to continue paying on the loan to it directly absent any bankruptcy order to the contrary.
I would contact the lender to make sure of the continued payments and follow up with a confirming letter if such is the case.
