Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Indiana
Rights of spouse who is not filing
If I am going to file Chapter 7 because I have a large debt in my name only, but my husband is not filing, is he able to continue to pay our credit cards on time that are in both of our names?
Are Roth IRA's exempt assets?

Re: Rights of spouse who is not filing
Yes you husband can keep paying your joint credit cards
if you file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy. In fact, if he doesn't,
the credit card issuer will likely take collection action
against him.
Retirement accounts are exempt assets. Check Indiana
Code Section 34-2-28-1(a)(6) for more details.
