If a co defendant has received a bankruptcy stay in our case, can I still get a fair trial without him?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christian Frederick Paul (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Christian F. Paul
It sounds as though you are a defendant in a civil case and a co-defendant filed a bankruptcy petition. If you need his testimony to prove your case, you should be able to take his deposition before trial and to subpoena him as a witness at trial. You cannot pursue him for whatever he may owe you because of the bankruptcy stay, but asking him questions under oath to prove your defense is not prohibited. If in doubt, make a motion in the Bankruptcy Court for permission to subpoena the debtor in your civil case. I hope you are represented by counsel in your case. If not, and if it is important for you to prevail in defending the case, you might want to hire a lawyer while there's still time. Hope this perspective helps.

Is there any possible way to keep a car when filing a chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Michael Burton McFarland (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Michael B. McFarland, PA
If you are current on your payments, you can generally reaffirm the debt and keep making the car payments. However, unless you have some equity in the vehicle, you might be better off surrendering it and paying cash for a clunker - then saving until you can pay cash for a better rig. It's best to make your "car payment" to your savings account.

If I file chapter 7, will my husband be responsible for my debts. Or is divorce a better option?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Phong Thanh Tran (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Office of Pho Ethan Tran, PLLC
Unless your husband was a guarantor or a co-debtor on your debts, he will not be legally responsible for your debts if you file for bankruptcy.
