Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California

Re: Co-Signer

No - if you list her in the bankruptcy as a creditor, the obligation you may owe her for the timeshare debt would also be discharged. The question is whether the timeshare has equity, in which case the trustee may seek to liquidate your share - meaning your girlfriend can either buy your half of the equity from the trustee, or he'll sell the whole thing and she should get her 1/2 equity share. There are a lot of possible outcomes - check with your bankruptcy attorney. Call or email me if you want to discuss this further.
