Who's to know?
Is it possible to file in another county other than the one in which i reside. the local newspaper posts the persons filing for bankrupcy and i would rather the whole town did'nt know. they must pick this information up at the county clerks office. will my employer be notified?

Re: Who's to know?
You must file in the DISTRICT wherein you resided for the 180 days next preceeding the filing. The filing is a matter of public record. The clerk's office will set the matter with the nearest court site to your residence. It's not that bad. Usually a one time publication. Not so many people read it. Think, instead, of the relief you will exxperience.
