Yes, for the joint debts. Not if they were just in your name. If your divorce order provides that you will pay those joint debts, you may find yourself in contempt of the divorce decree. Get an experienced bankruptcy lawyer to review your situation.
yes they can.just have to go to courthouse and pay 10.00 filing fee
No he can't. Go find yourself a good attorney.
If it becomes very serious to the point were he will not leave you alone I would suggest filing a restraining order.
It probably means that the creditor is not willing to accept the terms of the 13 filing. Therefore the crediotr will seek to recover the property that is secured for the amount owed and any deficit, fees incurred. Such as repossesion and resale of a vehicle.
Filing a bankruptcy automatically "stays" almost all actions against the debtor. It gives the debtor a temporary hiatus from actions by creditors although it is not permanent and as the procedure progresses the debtor's property may eventually be distributed. A creditor's lawyer, especially a foreclosing bank, can seek a "relief from stay" by filing a motion with the court. If the motion is granted the creditor can go ahead and foreclose on the property and sell it to satisfy its debt. That usually happens when there is no equity in the property.

Check your Credit Report. It has the names, addresses, and phone numbers of each of the creditors used over the past 7 years. Call or go on-line to contact all three Credit Reporting Agencies. The Bankruptcy Code as amended in 2005 requires you to use the creditor's address that is on the last three written notices that creditor has sent you. If you have not received anything in writing from them in a while, then go online and search for the corporate address and telephone number. Call them and ask them what their company's bankruptcy address is. Write down the steps you took to obtain the proper address in case you need the information later. Use all addresses you have for that creditor in your bankruptcy schedules and mailing matrix - overkill is better. Failure to properly notify the creditor may result in that debt not being discharged so treat this as one of the most important aspects of filing.
It should have been addressed in the original action, but there is nothing barring the ex-spouse from going back and filing a motion for alimony.
better to settle with creditor first
If your ex files bankruptcy and you are listed on some debts that (s)he wants to discharge, you will become 100% liable instead of 50%. Go through all your debts and make sure that anything in both of your names is paid. If you no longer have any joint debt, an ex filing will not affect your credit.
the answer is no, because is not right
pretend you're the supervisor and tell creditor that the he/she was let go/laid off weeks ago!
