Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Illinois

my husband has a small claims judgement against him in the state of Illinois. The judgement is only against him.

He has to go for a Discovery Hearing to produce assets. We have joint assets. Does he have to produce them or are they exempt because my name is on them?
