It is difficult. Most places want to make sure that the husband can't leave the wife destitute, so they assume the property is in both names, even if only one is on the deed. It is easier to put it in her name alone than his. Check with a property lawyer in your jurisdiction for the specific laws and how you can do this.

If a deed is in three names and two of the names belong to a married couple how can they take their names off the deed and put the deed in the third person's name only?

The two people can sign a quit claim deed and record it, effectively putting the deed in the third person's name only. HOWEVER, if there is still a mortgage on the property then the lender has to agree to this. If the couple co-signed for the home, this may not work until the third person can afford to refinance alone.

How can a home be protected when it is jointly owned by a married couple and only one spouse files for bankruptcy?

It depends upon how the property is titled and the homestead exemption allowed. In community property states the home of a married couple will become a part of the bankruptcy if it was acquired during the marriage and if it is not covered by the homestead exemption. In non CP non TBE states a home is not at risk as long as it is protected by the homestead exemption and only one spouse is the debtor/filer. In states that allow property to be held as TBE by married couples the home would not be subject to BK action regardless of the homestead exemption amount when only one spouse is the debtor/filer. FYI, it is advisable for married couples living in community property states to file a bankruptcy jointly even if only one spouse has incurred the debt.
