If the eviction is for nonpayment of rent, yes, since it is a debt collection procedure. The landlord or property manager would have to move for relief from stay to proceed. However, this varies from state to state and even from one bankruptcy court to another, so check with a local bankruptcy lawyer. Even if the eviction is not for past-due rent, the claim will include costs and lawyer's fees, so the landlord should move for relief from stay or wait, if it is a c. 7, until the case is closed. Make sure the landlord is included as a creditor to discharge any money owed to the landlord.
To be certain of the status of such debt you should check the state statutes if filing a state bankruptcy. If it is a Federal filing, debts owed to any state department or affiliate is only dischargeable in relation to the type of debt and when it was was incurred.
No, it would be a nonpriority, unsecured debt.
No. Bankruptcy doesn't erase anything from your credit. In fact, it adds a very, very, bad thing to it.
No a landlord can not have a bank account frozen. The landlord must file a suit in court to get back any money owed to them.

Yes. If they were not included then the bankruptcy doesn't apply to any debt owed to them.
If payments were late, then the money was owed. Yes, the landlord may take money owed.
Yes you can file bankruptcy. However the "rent to own home" is not owed by you and is still owned by the "landlord". You can continue with the "rent to own" or walk away. Bankruptcy is an entitlement to citizens for debt relief
If there is any damage to the rented property he can get additional money to compensate; otherwise he is limited to the rent owed.
Yes...in fact you must do everything possible to secure as many assets as you can to pay your creditors.
Not in any state I know of.
