I assumed from your question that you and your husband are in a joint Ch 13 bankruptcy. If that is the case and you are divorcing you can either consider converting the case to Ch 7 while separated but before the divroce is granted or consider a sever of the exisiting Ch 13 case. In any event you need to consult with your bankruptcy attorney before making any decisions.
