Divorce and effects of chapter 7 on non filing spouse?
Generally speaking, when one spouse files for bankruptcy, the non-filing spouse should not be effected by this because they are only filing as to their individual debts. They are still obligated to the joint debts they share with you. Additionally, if you are in the process of a divorce the fact that one has filed for bankruptcy does not extinguish his duties to pay the divorce settlement, child support, alimony, etc.
My husband and I are filing for divorce he is filing do I have to file too or should I just wait to get the paperwork from him and how long should I wait before I start with proceeding's?
If one party is filing the divorce it is not necessary for the other person to do so also. However, divorce can be an ugly and stressful process so you should get an attorney and have representation as soon as possible so that when the paperwork comes you are already prepared . And, having representation now will offer you legal advice for actions you should be taking already while the divorce is in progress.
